"Come along Mrs. Thornhill" One of the best edits I have seen in any movie. Hitchcock was geniuus. He was well aware that the audience had seen that thing before, so instead he made us chuckle while also making us feel heartwarmed that everything is over and good old Roger can now settle down with his new wife. This movie is so good that it pains my heart that it's only my 3rd favorite Alfred Hitchcock movie (but it's still in my top 10 favorites of all time). For me Vertigo is the greatest movie of all time and Rear Window is the second greatest Hitchcock movie.

Vandamm (James Mason) is surprisingly casual after having just witnessed his top lieutenant being shot and falling to his death. That may seem odd, but he was probably aware of prisoner exchanges made with spies at the time (see “Klaus Fuchs”) or of cooperating with his captors and continuing to live the luxurious life he became accustomed to (see “John Cairncross”).

Well, here's the thing. What more can be told to the audience about Roger and Eve in the time between his trying to save her at Mount Rushmore and the train trip they take together? The conflict that Roger had been enduring has been resolved. We already know that Roger and Eve have a thing for each other and would likely wind up living their lives together happily ever after, so what more can be said? How would you end it? You want to see their wedding for a satisfying closing? Okay, why? If it's to tell the audience that they get married, then how does the ending scene as it is not work to establish that anyway? Consider this: when telling a story on the screen, one of the rules is to avoid being redundant. Another rule is to tell the story efficiently. There are exceptions, of course, but how would such exceptions work in this case? Why tell the audience what they may already know, and why work harder than you really need to just to say the same thing?

The editing would be fine if it wasn't for Cary Grant visibly uttering "yes" when what we hear is "come along". It would have been okay if he wasn't already smiling (one could say "what we hear doesn't match but it's still an echo of the cliff scene", like this is when cliff rescue/train merge - but "yes/come along" is already on the train...). That said, it adds strangeness to an already strange film, even if it's accidental. It's disorientating. It's like we still see the cliff sequence already hearing the train bit. Maybe he went for that after all?
