    • Trivia
      According to Steve Guttenberg's autobiography, "The Guttenberg Bible", the original camera crew was fired during the first week and replaced by Producer Dino De Laurentiis with crew members who only spoke Italian. Soon afterwards, Curtis Hanson insisted on hiring Gilbert Taylor to replace the Italian cinematographer.
    • Goofs
      After Terry (Steve Guttenberg) loses Chris (Brad Greenquist) after following him to a bar, he hides in his car in a side alley near Chris' home, waiting for him. When Chris arrives home, Terry drives slowly out from the side alley; a crew member wearing a red jacket and blue jeans can be seen through the rear window, behind Terry's car.

    Well Worth a Look

    Directed by future phenom Curtis (L.A. Confidential, Wonder Boys) Hanson, THE BEDROOM WINDOW is an elegant Hitchcock homage, and an example of good 1980s moviemaking. Its got a certain vibe, thanks to terrific cinematography by the great Gilbert Taylor, production design by Ron Foreman, and expert direction by Hanson. REAR WINDOW it ain't, but this jazzy film is still worth a look. Lighten up folks!
