Details | OBSESSION (Brian De Palma, 1976, DCP, 98 mins) A rich New Orleans real estate developer’s guilt over his wife’s violent death leads to an obsession with a woman who resembles her. With a screenplay by Paul Schrader, cinematography by Vilmos Szigmond, and an Oscar-nominated score by Bernard Herrmann (who considered it his best), OBSESSION is both a melodrama and a neo-noir thriller, one that displays its debt to Hitchcock in its story and style. Cliff Robertson, Geneviève Bujold, and John Lithgow star. DCP from Sony. The “VertiGoals” film series is devoted to Hitchcock’s Vertigo and a selection of films it inspired. |
