Edward Dmytryk brought his experience making US noirs to UK shores, resulting in an astonishingly dark and unsettling picture. Robert Newton stars as a psychiatrist who discovers his wife is having an affair. He resolves to take revenge by kidnapping and murdering her lover and then dissolving his corpse in a bath of acid. One of the Hollywood Ten, famously blacklisted for refusing to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee, Edward Dmytryk spent his exile in England, where he made extraordinary features, including Obsession . Written by Alec Coppel, who would later co-write Vertigo , and scored by the great Italian composer Nino Rota ( 8½ , The Godfather ), Obsession ’s release was originally delayed due to the ongoing court case of the real-life ‘Acid Bath Murderer’, John Haigh. Part of Cinema Rediscovered on Tour . All QFT Community, LUMI and paid Members will receive double loyalty points on tickets across the season. Not a member? Find the membership that suits you.
