Review of The Window

The Window (1949)
5/10
Predictable but Worth the Time Spent
7 December 2020
"Tommy Woodry" (Bobby Driscoll) is a young kid who has a penchant for making up incredible stories which people sometimes believe. His parents, "Ed Woodry" (Arthur Kennedy) and "Mary Woodry" (Barbara Hale) have long since gotten accustomed to his tall tales and have become quite irritated with him for spreading them. So when he comes to them and tells them that their neighbors "Joe Kellerson" (Paul Stewart) and "Jean Kellerson" (Ruth Roman) who live in the apartment upstairs have just murdered a man they send him to his room without supper. What neither of them realizes is that what Tommy is telling them is true and when the upstairs neighbors hear that Tommy may have seen something they become extremely intent on finding out every detail. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a nice little drama which managed to keep my attention throughout. Admittedly, the plot was rather predictable but it was worth the time spent and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
