Blackmailers don't shoot

A classic phrase!

"Blackmailers don't shoot. They kill." This is a famous line from the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock film "Rear Window", spoken by the character Lisa Carol Little (played by Grace Kelly).

The phrase is a clever play on words, highlighting the difference between blackmail (a form of psychological coercion) and murder (a violent act). It's a memorable and iconic line that has become synonymous with Hitchcock's style of suspenseful storytelling.
