It's time for Episode 115 of Adapt or Perish, so grab your binoculars and join us for a look at the classic thriller, Rear Window!

In this episode, we discuss:

  • It Had to Be Murder, Cornell Woolrich's original 1942 short story (which may have been inspired by Through a Window by H.G. Wells)
  • Rear Window, the 1954 movie directed by Alfred Hitchcock, written by John Michael Hayes, and starring Jimmy Stewart, Grace Kelly, Thelma Ritter, and Raymond Burr
  • Rear Window, the 1998 TV movie directed by Jeff Bleckner, written by Eric Overmyer and Larry Gross, and starring Christopher Reeve, Daryl Hannah, and Robert Forster

And for a look at 2007's Disturbia, also inspired by Rear Window and directed by D.J. Caruso and starring Shia LaBeouf, check out Episode 15 of Multiplex Time Machine, hosted by Jeremy and his best friend Ian Averill, available on the web, on Apple Podcasts, and wherever else you get your pod.
