Joseph Losey’s lurid and often misunderstood drama stars the great Elizabeth Taylor (Suddenly, Last Summer) as an ageing London prostitute who befriends a young woman (Mia Farrow, See No Evil)
that reminds her of her long-dead daughter. As the bizarre relationship
between the two evolves, the appearance of Robert Mitchum (Cape Fear), as Farrow’s abusive stepfather, ignites deep emotions and dark passions.
With
its exquisite production design, stylish cinematography and elegant
score, Joseph Losey’s lost masterpiece finally makes its long-overdue
premiere on Blu-ray.
