"Seance on a Wet Afternoon", directed by Bryan Forbes

Movie, 1964

A film looking at desperation in the English suburbs at a time when the swinging 60s was really kicking off. This is a film in which credibility and motivations are stretched, but which carries a powerful punch in looking and presenting a world teetering on the brink of insanity. Some great camerawork and music give a really tense atmosphere, as the main characters battle with each other and a situation running out of control. Gloriously overblown and entertaining for it.
