Remember that scene where Ned breaks the window and Matty gets turned on by it...
Did that thing ever get fixed? You'd think Edmund would come home and wonder, "Honey, what happened to our window?"

WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE???? The point is to show Ned's passion at that moment. Did that elude you?
shareAlso the maid would take notice.
shareToo funny, I have thought the same thing many times!
shareYes it has been fixed! At the same time as the waitress in the restaurant was cleaning the dishes! Or maybe at the same time as Oscar was ironing his shirt... don't remember, i always mix up both...

There are many elements of this movie to fixate on so I suppose the breaking of the window is just as valid as any of them. The shattering of the window, with it's dangerous shards of glass, never once mentioned or dealt with afterward is at once perhaps trivial and meaningless or a great kinetic device which keeps the viewer (if subliminally) ever mindful of the ensuing pitfalls.
shareShe's rich..pronto..the window gets fixed right up the next day..hubby's out of town. What's the big deal?
I think his being so hot for her to break the window and her being hot enough to allow it (and even be turned on by it) was even more a part of the spell she put on him..it made it all somewhat hotter. And him even more bewitched.
The break-in would've served at least 2 or more purposes in my mind (in addition to generally being sizzling hot!)
If someone happened upon their initial love-making or was watching, Matty could've claimed he broke-in and attacked her.
If the murder hadn't gone as planned, Matty could recall that someone had broken-in while she was away months before and used the repairman to vouch for at least part of her story.
