Nosy neighbor

Just about the only thing scarier than being followed by a pack of evil birds or staying at the wrong motel is seeing a crime through your window and not being able to do anything about it. Tonight, you can live the fear when the Hampshire House restaurant continues its Alfred Hitchcock dinner series with "Rear Window," one of the director's more subtle pictures. Your admission gets you the movie screening and a three-course dinner. Reservations recommended. 7 p.m. $30. Hampshire House, 84 Beacon St., Boston. 617-227-9600. hampshirehouse.com [M.G.]
