OBSESSION

"Exquisite entertainment." -Richard Schickel, Time Magazine

"Eerie and haunting... Unforgettable. See it." -Liz Smith, Cosmopolitan

"An immensely important cinematic work. As good and often better than anything Hitchcock as ever done." -Rex Reed, Daily News

Brian De Palma's spin on Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo" casts Cliff Robertson as Michael Courtland, a New Orleans businessman whose life is shattered when his wife and daughter are tragically killed in a botched kidnap rescue attempt. Many years later while visiting Italy he meets and falls in love with Sandra Portinari (Genevieve Bujold) who bears a striking resemblance to his wife.
