Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What does Jimmy Stewart's leg cast say?

Answer: Here lie the broken bones of L.B. Jefferies.

Jeff, Jimmy Stewart's character, has been in his cast for six weeks, and has one more week to go. He broke his leg while photographing a car crash on a race track. He is a "Life Magazine" photographer.
2. What is Stella's occupation?

Answer: Insurance company nurse

Stella, played by Thelma Ritter, is full of advice for Jeff and wants him to marry Lisa. She thinks that a man and a woman should get together like two cabs running into each other in Time Square. She thinks that all of this peeping out the window is only going to lead to trouble. Boy, is she right.
3. Jeff watches his neighbors while sitting in a wheelchair and looking out the window. The following are lists of some of the obvious professions/hobbies of his neighbors. Pick the list that is completely correct.

Answer: Costume jewelry salesman, dancer, composer, sculptress

Jeff becomes so familiar with his neighbors that he considers them acquaintances, and sympathizes with all of their ups and downs in life. Jeff finds out from his friend, Tom, the detective, that Thorwald's profession is a costume jewelry salesman. Miss Torso is a dancer because Jeff and the audience can see her practicing with partners and a teacher instructs one day at her apartment.

The composer sits at his piano and walks around the room, then goes over to the piano, plays a few keys, and makes notes.

The woman who is a sculptress may be retired and doing it as a hobby.
4. Lisa Carol Freemont, played by Grace Kelly, makes her first appearance in the movie by giving Jeff a close-up screen kiss. She then presents herself to him in a beautiful $1,100 dress. In what city does Lisa say that the dress was made?

Answer: Paris

Lisa said that the dress was right off the Paris plane, and that they sell a dozen a day in the $1,100 price range. Her sophistication, and level of success in the New York fashion industry, in the era of the 1950s, is a pleasure to watch.
5. Lisa and Jeff fight over his way of life, his profession as a freelance photographer for "Life Magazine". What sort of career does Lisa want for him, so that he would stay put in NYC?

Answer: Portrait and fashion photographer

She doesn't understand why Jeff has to live out of a suitcase, taking pictures all over the world while taking incredible risks, when he could be with her, living a wealthy, prosperous and safe lifestyle.
6. Lisa and Jeff watch Miss Torso, the dancer, entertain her gentlemen callers. Jeff says, "She is like a queen bee with her pick of the drones." What does Lisa say in response?

Answer: "I'd say she is doing a woman's hardest job, juggling wolves."

Lisa believes that Miss Torso does not love any of them. Jeff thinks that she is attracted to the most prosperous looking one but Lisa does not think that that means a thing.
7. What do we first see Lars Thorwald doing for his wife?

Answer: Bringing her dinner in bed

Jeff watches from the window as Lars leaves the tray of food for his sick wife in bed. As soon as he leaves the room, the wife is suspicious, and sneaks up on him in the living room. She accuses him of something, probably because she overhears him talking to another woman. She laughs at him. This is the last time we see her alive.
8. Where do we see Hitchcock in the film?

Answer: Winding a clock in the composer's apartment

Hitchcock always makes a cameo appearance in his movies, and keeps the audience guessing as to where he is going to show up. He is winding the clock in the composer's apartment without any other obvious connection to him.
9. Who said this statement, "According to you, people should be born, live, and die in the same spot!"

Answer: Lisa Carol Freemont

Lisa picks an argument with Jeff about him being unable to understand that she is capable of travelling with him in harsh conditions. She thinks that she is able to pack the proper clothes. He makes extreme examples of temperatures, and exotic food that they would have to eat, just to prove her wrong and make her feel uncomfortable.
10. The audience sees the sculptress working on a sculpture in her yard. Someone comes by, and asks what it is. What does the sculptress call it?

Answer: Hunger

The sculpture is a contemporary pear-shaped form with a large hole in the middle. She seems to have a wonderful life of sculpting, sunbathing, and sleeping.
