This has been out for a while but I don't recall seeing it mentioned here. Arrow Films have done a great job with this one and the disc is region free so no need to have a multi-region player to view it. I really like this film as it shows De Palma and Paul Schrader working out their "obsession" with Hitchcock's Vertigo. I believe the story goes that Schrader and De Palma had finally gone to see Vertigo in a cinema after having not seen it in many years projected on a big screen (or maybe they had never seen it this way as the film I believe had not been shown in cinemas for some time at this point) and were so excited by it they stayed up late into the night talking about possibly making a film like Vertigo. Out of that conversation and the fact they could not stop thinking about how amazing Vertigo was in a cinema, Obsession was born.
