The Legend by Garrett Hongo In memory of Jay Kashiwamura In Chicago, it is snowing softly and a man has just done his wash for the week. He steps into the twilight of early evening, carrying a wrinkled shopping bag full of neatly folded clothes, and, for a moment, enjoys the feel of warm laundry and crinkled paper, flannellike against his gloveless hands. There's a Rembrandt glow on his face, a triangle of orange in the hollow of his cheek as a last flash of sunset blazes the storefronts and lit windows of the street. He is Asian, Thai or Vietnamese, and very skinny, dressed as one of the poor in rumpled suit pants and a plaid mackinaw, dingy and too large. He negotiates the slick of ice on the sidewalk by his car, opens the Fairlane's back door, leans to place the laundry in, and turns, for an instant, toward the flurry of footsteps and cries of pedestrians as a boy--that's all he was-- backs from the corner package store shooting a pistol, firing it, once, at the dumbfounded man who falls forward, grabbing at his chest.

From the sitting position of the protagonist, L.B. Jefferies (Jeff), in Rear Window (Alfred Hitchcock, 1954) to Jeff’s view as he pans his neighbourhood from his rear window, these characteristics of the film reflects both physically and abstractly, upon how cinemagoers engage with the screen. The curtains roll up in the beginning of the movie signifying a show is about to start as it would with theatre shows in those times. A sweaty man is shown and then the scene is cut to a close up of the thermometer to indicate the temperature of the surrounding and this makes the audience subconsciously relate as to why the windows of the area are opened. For most of the movie, we view the neighbourhood from Long Shots i.e.

Two tall maple trees, with branches drooping low over the sidewalk, shaded one side of the walls from the morning sunlight.’ This creates an atmosphere which is rather eerie; it makes the reader think of an old jail in which would usually be seen in a movie, it is definitely somewhere nobody would like to be. In Morley Callaghan’s story, he describes the villagers watching the workers at the old jail with ‘a crowd had gathered on the sidewalk by the lamp-post, and while moths and small insects swarmed the high blue carbon light, the crowd had thrown sticks and bottles and small stones at the out of town work men in the jail yard.’ This lets the reader know that these out of town workers were not welcome and adds an aura of tension. When Michael is going to the fishing pier, the author uses symbolism to add suspense. ‘..Michael Foster walked south of town on the dusty road leading to the power-house and Smollet’s fishing pier.
