Ever notice how.....


They enter through the back door but they live across the street?

reply

Their house is on whichever side they enter the door in. Weird, but always how they did it. In the intro, Ray looks out of the living-room window to see them coming.

But if they're in the kitchen, Marie and Frank's house is motioned to through the kitchen window.

reply

Yeah, that's weird. At first, you'd think it might be because they keep the back door unlocked and the front door locked...But that's not the case, at all. The front door never seems to be unlocked!

Kind of off-topic: Do they not lock the back door AT ALL? Even at nighttime?

reply

I always assumed that Marie would look through the front windows of the house, and if no one is in the living room she would then go through the kitchen.

reply

Good theory.

reply

Yep you have to wonder that

reply

Yeah, they also never show the two houses in the same shot.

reply

They just entered into what ever room the action was going on in. It was obviously done for convenience for what ever the scene was.

reply

I used to think their house was set an angle from the street, so they could access both doors from the front, but it isn't. Their houses in real life are actually across the street from each other.

reply

When you see the pictures of each house they don't look like they would belong on the same street. Marie and Frank's home is an older brick structure and Ray's house is a newer non-brick Cape Cod. They just don't seem to fit together.

reply

Well it shouldn't really her too of a surpise since Frank and Marie would be pretty much old fanishoned
