There are not enough words in the English language - or any other - that can accurately describe the PERFECT film. This is one of those pictures that only improves after each viewing. James Stewart and Kim Novack are stellar in this true masterpiece of filmdom. Bernard Herrmann's score complements the movie immensely and is an integral part of the story. Only Alfred Hitchcock, a man who epitomizes the movie-making art could have made this film. No one can touch the master, Sir Alfred, and the film is evidence of that very fact. To show genius at work, the viewer needs to check out the backgrounds or the beautifully photographed scenes of San Francisco and surrounding areas; they are as meticulously done as any of the works of such painters as Degas or da Vinci. Hitchcock may not have invented the motion picture camera, but he certainly understood it! It's too bad that the rating only limits me to five stars. THIS ONE RATES A 10
