minutes you got it mr. McGuire Harlan

developing an interest in photography at
15
Mason shortly begins to study under
photography teacher mr. Turlington
darkroom time is extra curricular I mean
technically you don’t ever have to be in

frustrated by Mason seemingly with rgp
attitude and tries to push him
artistically any dipshit can take
picture space art that’s special what
can you bring to it that nobody else can
buy his high school senior year though
Mason’s photography has developed to
such a point that it earns him a college
scholarship and a silver medal in the
Texas State photo competition leaving
hope for a potential career and a bright
future

himself to corner will with his mistress
doing pretend this is all pretend after

your day sentence for a peeping tom is
six months in the workhouse down to a
wheelchair after breaking his leg while

HAMP there’s a football
and you love my not too active in order
to keep busy and entertained he
obsessively peers out his rear window
into his apartment complex his courtyard
and learns his neighbor’s daily routines
we become a race of peeping toms what
people ought to do is get outside the
wrong house and look in for a change
using binoculars and a telephoto lens
this peeping tom soon’s become convinced
that his neighbor lars thorwald has
killed his wife murderer would never
parade his crime in front of an open
window why not why for all you know
there’s probably something a lot more
sinister going on behind those windows
but after he convinced his friends that
this is more than just a conspiracy
theory thorwald himself corners geoff in
his apartment
lucky for Geoff he’s got his trusty
camera’s flash bulbs handy and he uses
them to momentarily ward off the suspect
by temporarily blinding him just long
enough for the police to arrive Oh
