Strangers on a Train Photo Recreations

I decided to take four key moments and shots that I love from the film and recreate them in a somewhat interpretive sense. I used my family as the actors and then set up each shot as accurately as I could to the original images, though I decided to take some artistic liberties with the editing.

Guy (Farley Granger, left) has broken into Bruno’s father’s room to inform him about the troubled nature of his son. He, however, is unexpectedly confronted by Bruno (Robert Walker, right) himself, wielding a pistol.

Bruno (center), now effectively stalking Guy (off-screen), watches patiently during one of Guy’s tennis matches, never taking his eyes off of him, the only head not moving back and forth.

Bruno, during a party, looks over at Barbara Morton (Pat Hitchcock, center), and is immediately reminded of the one he murdered, Miriam (Kasey Rogers), envisioning Miriam’s pair of broken glasses upon Barbara’s face.

Bruno (left), after following Miriam (right) through an amusement park, manages to find her alone in a small clearing and strangles her, as seen through the lens of Miriam’s glasses.
