About this product

Product Information

Based on a Stephen King novella, the psychological thriller SECRET WINDOW is reminiscent of an Alfred Hitchcock film. Eccentric author Mort Rainey (Johnny Depp) finds his life spiraling out of control. With a drinking problem and a cigarette habit he can't shake, Mort can barely function when his wife (Maria Bello) leaves him and he abandons his work. In the midst of his anguish, a deranged man, John Shooter, (John Turturro) appears at Mort's New York cabin, claiming that Mort has plagiarized one of his stories. As his wife pushes Mort to finalize their divorce and Shooter systematically destroys his life, he struggles to restore order to an increasingly insane situation.Playing off of Turturro who is superb as the crazed, Gothic Shooter, Johnny Depp shines in his role with a quirky, brilliant performance. The mannerisms he brings to Mort, such as a problem with a clenched jaw, makes the author's descent into madness compelling and believable. With an emphasis on character study over special effects, the chills provided by this film rely on skilled acting and evoke thrillers of earlier generations like PSYCHO and STRANGERS ON A TRAIN, including a shocking twist of an ending.

Best! I sure wish all my local music shops hadn’t closed up (3 in the last 4 years) but I guess these folks are my new “local”. They even sent me a couple of key fobs! How friendly is that?

    Secret Window took a novella to a full length film that Hitchcock would have loved.

    Picke Stephen King as my Halloween Movie, si this film scared the wits out of me in a psychological thriller way. Johnny Depp went deeply into his character with a perfect villain played by John Turturro. My other favorite character, thanks to great acting, were Sheriff Newsome and Private Investigator Karsh. Amy Rainey character was spookily convincing to the end.

    Close the Window

    Was really into the story but the curtain went down early. Won't reveal ending, but I was disappointed. Worth a watch if only to check out John Turturro as stalker John Shooter...the chills are real!

  • Secret Window

    hero, as he walks through his house, armed with a weapon, ready to defend himself at all costs. He hears a noise from somewhere behind him, spins around, and suddenly realizes it was just his imagination. He sighs, puts down the weapon, turns around, and BOO! There's the bad guy, who has somehow managed to enter the locked home and avoid being detected. What if, I wonder, one of these times, the bad guy was seen as he entered? What if the Fisherman from "I Know What You Did Last Summer" had been spotted, and confronted, by one of the teenagers? What if Norman Bates' "Mother" had been exposed from the start? Then there presumably would be no movie, of course. I could criticize the "twist" of the movie and say that it has become one of the most overused solutions to Hollywood film ...

  • THIS HAS GOT TO BE SETTLED

    Features Actors: Johnny Depp, John Turturro, Maria Bello & Charles Dutton Running Time: 1 Hr. 36 Min. Rating: PG-13 Mort Rainey (Johnny Depp) is hardly the embodiment of glamour or success. Sure, he's a well-published author whose success gained him a home in the heart of a New England-style suburb, but now he's relegated to an increasingly disheveled retreat perched along the banks of Tashmore Lake. His divorce from the lovely Amy (Maria Bello, Coyote Ugly) was well founded—she was caught in bed with another man at a seedy roadside motel—but the broken union is severely impacting his writing, if a single, poorly-written paragraph qualifies as "writing." But a despondent heart and an extreme case of writer's block become the least of Rainey's troubles, thanks to a malevolent ...

  • Johnny Depp Excels in a Stephen King Mystery

    What I could call a psychological suspense akin to old Alfred Hitchcock films, "Secret Window," is based on a Stephen King novella of a different kind. The story begins with a sloppy avant garde writer, Mort Rainey (Johnny Depp), an alcoholic & cigarette addict because he feels like his life's out of his own control: after his wife (Maria Bello) betrays & leaves him. He quits writing. He acts depressed & as if he feels worthless. While Mort is super strung out, showing signs of falling apart emotionally, a weird Southern stranger, (John Shooter), claims that Mort has plagiarized one of his stories. Since Shooter seems like an ignorant buffoon, it's hard to imagine he can even spell let alone compose a publishable story. Shooter is way beyond the edge ...
