Another favourite of mine. Extremely controversial when first released this is now (quite rightly) heralded as a classic piece of cinema.
While voyeurism was a pretty taboo subject to explore at the time, the way in which the subject matter is explored and executed is a testament both the Director and the writing.
It's such a shame Michael Powell's career never recovered after making it.
The Optimum/Studio Canal Blu-Ray is a must buy, too.
