		<description><![CDATA[It was Scars of Dracula I think, or maybe Dracula Has Risen from the Grave. I was 14 and not much of a horror fan (The Lost Boys had given me nightmares. Pathetic I know.) Yet late one night, alone and flicking through the TV channels I stopped upon a beautiful young woman - running. She was being chased through a lush green forest by some lunatic on a horse drawn carriage and just when it looked like she’d escaped, there he stood, not the lunatic, but a more grim and seductive figure: Dracula.

At this point I would normally have switched off and crept nervously to bed, but like I said the woman was hot and my teenage hormones were overriding my usual inbuilt cowardice. Dracula’s claw-like hand reached forward and tore the cloak from the woman’s shoulders, revealing her bare neck and ample cleavage. She was breathing heavily. Dracula’s eyes flared red (mine probably did too) and as he lent forward for that deathly embrace the woman did something I thought unheard of. She didn’t scream – she smiled.

This undercurrent of sexuality Hammer Productions brought to their graphic British horrors made their films dangerous. It still does. Even today, ...]]></description>

"We’ve become a race of Peeping Toms. What people oughta do is get outside their own house and look in for a change." - Stella, Rear Window
Rear Window is considered by many to be Alfred Hitchcock's most accomplished film. I can certainly see why people would argue that. Personally, I would trump for the deepness of Vertigo, the genre bending of Psycho, the thrilling entertainment of North by Northwest and the wickedness of Shadow of a Doubt as being more inspirational and more rewarding on multiple viewings, but there's little doubt that Rear Window is a true masterpiece.

The movie stars Hitch's favourite thesp James Stewart as Jeffries, a guy who frequently dodges death living as an award winning photographer who puts his work before his own well-being in dangerous situations. Of course that kind of lifestyle can only lead to one conclusion and it's soon that he finds himself confined to a wheelchair with one of his legs castrated. In an attempt to overcome the tedious boredom of being stuck in the claustrophobic space of his apartment, Jefferies spies on his neighbours by looking out of his window into the apartments of others and taking keen interest in their lives.

"Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock" -Harry Lime, The Third Man
In the climate of 1919, the aftermath of World War I weighed heavy on the globe's conscious, no where more so than Germany where Kaiser Wilhelm's power trip had cost them everything. Many lives had been lost, the economy was now a disaster and the social climate of the country was at it's lowest point in decades as they had felt cheated by their government into getting involved in a war that should never have taken place.

Remarkably despite all this (or maybe because of this) it would be German cinema that would prove to be the most creative, exciting and artistic for many years to come, leaving the 'safe style' of the American formula behind.
