Photojournalist L.B. Jefferies (James Stewart) is housebound after breaking his leg on assignment, but being stuck in his Greenwich Village apartment is the least of his concerns after he believes that he witnesses a murder across his back courtyard. None of his regular visitors, who include his wealthy flame Lisa (Grace Kelly), home-care nurse Stella (Thelma Ritter) and close friend Tom (Wendell Corey) believe him.
How can Jefferies convince his nearest and dearest that there is a murderer on the prowl - let alone other possible victims in the apartments nearby - before he becomes the next target?
One of Alfred Hitchcock’s most beloved thrillers returns to the big screen where it was always meant to live!
