Review of Obsession (1949) by Deadly V — 05 Oct 2011
"You've heard of the final straw? Well you're it".
The best of stiff-upper-lip cynicism is delivered quite wonderfully by the excellent Robert Newton in this dark and engaging film. Dmytryk's vision of post-war UK adds to the flavour of this thoughtful noir and it forms part of an interesting British side to the career of a prolific and renowned Hollywood director.
