This movie, let me tell you... (MILD SPOILER) This film is a Vertigo "homage" with a little movie-making thrown in to fill the gaps. If you disapprove of forced "homages" and movies about movie-making you better just go see Vertigo instead. Or any film by Hitchcock or Dario Argento, from whom DePalma borrows most of what we see here. Visually Body Double is very nice, sometimes great. But it's like listening to a cover album, where all bands are trying to sound like the artist they're covering. If it's fine by you - you're really gonna enjoy Body Double. If not, then not. Looking for thrills and surprises? Better check out all of Hitchcock instead, if you haven't already. Otherwise you're about to spoil your enjoyment of his films, cause quite a few directors try to make them again and again.
