Body Double

What a fantastic thriller directed by the New Hollywood version of Hitchcock, Brian De Palma. You could tell that Hitchcock definitely had some sort of influence on this film, from that crappy green screen when Jake Scully and Gloria Revelle kiss on the beach to the plot of Jake witnessing Gloria's murder while peeping through her window, reminiscent of the Hitchcock classic Rear Window (1954). Melanie Griffith stole the show with a great performance as Holly Body, an adult film actress that Sam Bouchard uses as a body double for Gloria's dancing in the window to attract Jake's attention. Craig Wasson's performance as Jake Scully was good in his own right.
