Possession
Directed by Andrzej Żuławski
Banned upon its original release in 1981, Andrzej Żuławski’s stunning nightmare of a marriage unraveling is an experience unlike any other. Professional spy Mark returns to his West Berlin home to find his wife Anna insistent on a divorce. As Anna’s frenzied behavior becomes ever more alarming, Mark discovers a truth far more sinister than his wildest suspicions. With its pulsating score, visceral imagery, and some of the most haunting performances ever captured on screen, Possession is cinematic delirium at its most intoxicating.

An absolute classic movie it’s so compelling and the story is so wild and crazy you can’t turn away from the screen. The acting is great by adjani and neill, it’s somewhat over the top but here it fits in great with the story it’s telling. Camera work is fantastic as is the score. Some incredibly intense scenes that adjani plays so well. Must watch
An undeniable classic, with insane performances. I am still thinking about this one years after.
