The "Russian Film Experiment" is used a large amount of times in the movie, Rear Window. Since Jimmy Stewart cannot go outside due to his broken leg, he starts being a "Peeping Tom" with all his neighbors. Jimmy, in almost every scene, has a neutral face while he is looking at what his neighbors are doing. But, due to the dark lighting, Jimmy is thought to be sneaky and secretive about his actions. This was used numerous times throughout the movie.
