IFWT #27 - Body Double (1984)

After a short summer hiatus, We're back! and for our returning episode we'll be taking a dive into Brian De Palma's most controversial film, Body Double. At the forefront of the erotic thriller genre, Body Double borrows heavily from De Palma's hero Alfred Hitchcock. Blending themes and tropes from Rear Window and Vertigo, Body Double weaves a Hollywood story that includes voyeurism, the porn industry and mistaken identity. Shot with De Palma's trademark visual flare, Body Double is well worth the IFWT extensive deep dive treatment.
