In this picutre you see Jeff paying attention to his neighbor but no attention to Lisa.
What is the signifcance of the camera in the movie?
The camera is Jefferies movie screen into his neighbors lives. Without the camera he wouldn't be able to get a good look at them also becuase he does not see Lisa through the camera he does not see her as something he desires. Kind of like a movie theater you don't go to see the guy accross from you, you go to see the movie because of this Jeff seems to have no eroctic desire for Lisa.
What makes Jeff start seeing Lisa as someone he desires?
It is not till Lisa goes over and snoops around Mr. Thorwalds apartment that he sees her as someone he desires. As Lisa is snooping Jeff is watching her through his camera he starts seeing her with erotic desire.
Great opening to your blog! It really made your blog interesting! I liked you idea about the camera gaze.
