Obsession, a review by Antares


Obsession (1949) 85/100 - What a delightful little gem of British film noir. And to think, we owe it all to some red-baiting politicians in Washington D.C. If Edward Dmytryk hadn't been blacklisted by HUAC in 1947, this film probably would not have seen the light of day. There's a macabre sense of whimsy involved in the screenplay which finds a psychiatrist, played wonderfully by Robert Newton, plotting the perfect murder of his wife's lover. At first, I thought the setup had the potential for falling apart at the seams. But as the film progresses, you can see that this murder plot could work. That is, until the arrival of Superintendent Finsbury of Scotland Yard, played vexatiously by Naunton Wayne. Finsbury's character has to be the seed sewn for the future American detective Columbo. He has the long coat, the annoying way of appearing endlessly with what appear to be little trifles and the uncanny ability to get his target to trip himself up. This is a highly enjoyable film that really needs to put out on DVD.

Teal = Masterpiece
Dark Green = Classic or someday will be
Lime Green = A good, entertaining film
Orange = Average
Red = Cinemuck
Brown = The color of crap, which this film is

My Thoughts:
This is one of the episodes I actually missed when it was on TV. It is the 4th episode to air. I really wish I seen this one on TV as it may have given me some more hope for the series... as I really liked this one a lot. Sure there was some problems with it.... some good sized plot holes and such. But it was entertaining... and kept my interest throughout the episode.
