Review of Body Double (1984) by Masorad ( — 16 Dec 2008
There's your homage, and there's your plagiarism. "Body Double" was undoubtedly made with the former in mind, but the latter is (unwittingly?) what ended up on the screen. DePalma here reaches the pinnacle of his Hitchcocksucking; a hack's blend of "Vertigo," "Rear Window" and 80's, uhm, chic.
But if I have to cherry pick: the virtuoso tracking shot at the Rodeo Collection (aka "The Big Tango") is worth a look.
