Despite his ridiculous presence, Wasson as Jake is also likable for the endless kindness hidden behind his helplessness. Top 1000 Horror Movies (aggregated from over 40 "best of horror" lists), FINISHED PROJECT: 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die by (all) members of Letterboxd, I’m in my room alone bored and I will be making a list of every movie that comes to my mind until I get bored with that, twitter.com/edgarwright/status/758339515421433856, mubi.com/lists/edgar-wrights-favorite-movies. Although Jake “likes to watch,” in this alternate reality of depravity he gets the girl and the orgasm, and while this sequence turns out to be a scene in a porn production, his sexual pleasure seems unsimulated; even more important is that his performance doesn’t stop at “cut.” He keeps playing the porn actor, all leather jacket and slicked-back hair, which enables him to extract information from his co-star, Holly Body (Melanie Griffith). The movie is so cleverly constructed, with the emphasis on visual storytelling rather than dialogue, that we are neither faster nor slower than the hero as he gradually …

While peering through the beautiful home's telescope one night, he spies a gorgeous blonde dancing in her window.

This review may contain spoilers. Mobile site. Hitchcock made pretty much perfect movies. Upon seeing his fiancée having sex with another man in his own bed, he leaves quietly, without even slamming the door. What is 'Body Double' about? Made by fans in Auckland, New Zealand. Regardless of his pessimism, De Palma still allows his ending to be happy — with a touch of grotesque eroticism and humor. His very ineffectual qualities though are tapped for this, yet his hidden pluck surprises you. Terribly acted. Just a laughable poor man’s rip-off of Hitchcock but so much worse. Show All… Jake wasn’t only deceived when he was a passive man: he is again duped when he starts convincing himself that he can and deserves to have control — that is, when he begins peeping on who he thinks is Gloria Revelle. After discovering his girlfriend had played the loving fiancé just too well, Jake is literally told that he’s “gotta act” by a ruthless acting coach who purposely confuses the two meanings of the word in a shock psychoanalysis session. It's not that Body Double is bad, but it's just rather boring. SPOILER ALERT (obviously) If you mean "Does the main character die ? By fully putting his strategy out in the open and letting Jake accomplish himself, De Palma offers complete catharsis for his character and audience: the claustrophobic nightmare becomes a scene in a film, and Jake, taken out of his stupor by his director, understands the necessity to perceive this moment as a “shot” he must “get.” This power fantasy is realized as he returns to the tomb and reenters his reality, no longer behaving as himself but as an “actor,” active and corresponding to whom he wishes to be. I once described this as ‘Alfred Hitchcock, meet the 1980’s’ and I stand by that statement. This is better than Hitchcock. Body Double isn’t a serious film, but it takes its outrageous fancifulness seriously. Tobias Andersen 8,202 films 16,298 754 Edit, Rules: Generate a number (from 1 to x) via: www.random.org, See how many number of films there are in the…, Ivica_Pusticki 1,000 films 10,299 1330 Edit, You all heard about that famous book called "1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die", right!? not even joking someone in the comments pleade explain what happened. Endlessly entertaining, arousing and creepy, Body Double is the type of film they really don’t make for big audiences anymore. Also a withering critique of the misogyny of seemingly nice-guy protagonists as much as the violent villains from whom such men attempt to save women. De Palma’s exuberant style comes to perfect use when dream and reality become thus entwined: as soon as Jake and Gloria’s lips meet, the camera starts encircling the couple frenetically, as though struggling to capture this spiral of pure pleasure, while a green screen projection of the beach replaces the real one. En kul film! Body Double is a 1984 American neo-noir erotic thriller film co-written, produced, and directed by Brian De Palma and starring Craig Wasson, Gregg Henry, Melanie Griffith, and Deborah Shelton.
