I've been looking around for ages, but i can't seem to find any.

I also saw the dead thread of this, so I thought I'd repost this.

You might already be studying this in class, but there was a movie released a few years ago called Disturbia that was a teen-horror movie-esque version that took the story from Rear Window. Or you could look at the Truman Show - connects into RWs thematic engagement with the dangers of voyeurism.

Yeah I've already seen those. But for our related texts, the stories have to be of different forms. eg film - cant have a related text as a film.

How about some short stories featuring armchair detectives?
After all, Rear Window bears a lot of similarities with armchair detective fiction.

When I did my HSC I used The Murders in the Rue Morgue by Edgar Allen Poe. I think that could work nicely with Rear Window.
So would Sherlock Holmes short stories.

I hope that helps! And good luck!

We kinda already studied Murders in the Rue Morgue in class, as well as many Sherlock Holmes stories. I'm kinda stumped on this one, can anyone help?
