film directed by Nicolas Roeg.
In Vienna, a young American woman in her twenties (Russell) is rushed to the emergency room after apparently overdosing. With her is an Alex Linden, a American psychiatrist (Garfunkel) teaching in Vienna. Through a series of fragment flashbacks the film tells the story of their romance which ends up becoming a sexual obsession. The woman, Milena, suffers from depression and is still married to a much older man (Elliot) whom she crosses the border to see at times. Linden at first likes her free spirited ways then grows tired of her lifestyle which includes relationships with other men and heavy drinking. He spies on the woman and eventually tries to control her. At the hospital, an investigator realizes that there may be more to the case than a simple suicide. He investigates and tries to get Linden to confess to possible crimes involved with the case.
Critical reaction
The film received mixed reviews. Some found the film brilliant while others, possibly put off by the rape near the end intercut with graphic emergency room footage, found the film tasteless. It's UK distributor, Rank, were appalled by what they saw, one executive calling it "a sick film made by sick people for sick people." In response, they removed the Rank logo from all UK prints of the film. The film, since its release as part of the Criterion Collection in 2005, has received almost universally positive reviews.
The film received the People's Choice Award at the 1980 Toronto Film Festival which is the festival's highest honor.
