Latin Quarter (aka Frenzy)

When a young dancer has her career cut short by illness, she marries an eminent sculptor whose cruelty drives her into the arms of another man. This early role for Joan Greenwood sees her perfectly cast as the fragile ballerina trapped in an abusive relationship. Sewell’s atmospheric evocation of the fin de siècle decadence of bohemian Paris is enhanced by the camerawork of silent horror veteran Günther Krampf. Based on a French play, which the director adapted four times across his career, this macabre tale exploring jealousy and spiritualism serves up a shocking final twist.
