Joseph Losey’s lurid and often misunderstood drama stars the great Elizabeth Taylor as an ageing London prostitute who befriends a young woman (Mia Farrow) that reminds her of her long-dead daughter. As the bizarre relationship between the two evolves, the appearance of Robert Mitchum, as Farrow’s abusive stepfather, ignites deep emotions and dark passions. (Powerhouse Films)
