SHORT CUT OF "REAR WINDOW" (Alfred Hitchcock, 1954)

Look, Mr Jefferies, I'm not an educated woman,
But I can tell you one thing.
When a man and a woman see each other and like each other,
They ought to come together, wham,
Like a couple of taxis on Broadway
And not sit around analysing each other
Like two specimens in a bottle.

- There's an intelligent way to approach marriage.
Intelligence.
Nothing has caused the human race so much trouble as intelligence.
Modern marriage.

- No, we've progressed emotionally. - Baloney.
Once it was see somebody, get excited, get married.
Now, it's read a lot of books,
Fence with a lot of four-syllable words, psychoanalyse each other
Until you can't tell the difference
Between a petting party and a civil service exam.
People have different emotional levels -
When l married Myles, we were both a couple of maladjusted misfits.
We are still maladjusted, and we have loved every minute of it.

- Well, that's fine, Stella.
Now, would you fix me a sandwich, please?
