Paper Summary:

The paper discusses how in the films "Psycho," "North By Northwest," and "Rear Window," Alfred Hitchcock uses the action of the camera to invite the audience to take part in the voyeuristic activities of the characters. In "Psycho" and in "Rear Window" Hitchcock invites the audience into very specific moments in which the main characters observe others in the films without their knowledge. The paper depicts how these voyeuristic moments were a trademark of Hitchcock films that provided a moment in time for the audience to be part of the film and view action that called the audience in as second party voyeurs lead by Hitchcock himself.
