rope is fantastic, even if in the end it comes across as the revenge of the petit bourgeois against the nietzscheans---like most things, this is hiding in plain sight.
the games that take off from rear window are legion--you are watching a film, voyeur, about a voyeur, so your interests are in a sense the same as those of the other, less three-dimensional voyeur--henry, portrait of a serial killer does quite disturbing things with this trick, using it to turn the conventions of a slasher film back onto you as a viewer and by extension back onto themselves---if you catch the trick. if you don't, then everything can proceed as before. except maybe not.
