Jolie AS media: Which thrillers are considered to be the "best of all time" and why

Rarely are thrillers as quotable as this chilling gem. That those lines punch as hard as they do — you’ll never look at Chianti the same way again (or skin lotion, for that matter) — has plenty to do with Anthony Hopkins (who won an Oscar despite appearing on screen for only 16 minutes) and utterly horrifying set pieces.

BUT WHY?

"it broke all the rules" is a famous quote describing how people felt about the film. it was something new that people had not been experienced yet, which made it evident it would be a hit.

Ever spent a beautiful afternoon doing nothing but people watching? That’s all the hobbled photographer James Stewart wants to do; then he witnesses some curious happenings between his neighbours. Suddenly there’s a hacksaw cleaning going on, and Mrs. Thorwald has gone on mysterious holiday. Solving crimes from your apartment window ain’t easy, but somebody’s gotta do it.

BUT WHY?

"I was nurturing an ambition to visit New York at the time and Rear Window, more than any other film I'd seen, gave me a powerful sense of that city's atmosphere: noisy, breathless, intoxicating – even though the whole thing was filmed inside a Hollywood studio."
The above is quoted from a normal civilian who watched the film, showing the impact it had on peoples lives just simply from the talent of the way it was shot and the lightning and sound used.
