It's a thrilling and creepy film at the helm of the famously quirky director Ken Russell. The main actor is William Hurt, who has been shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role for three consecutive years and has become a smash hit.

The film brought William Hurt and the talented child star Drew Barrymore, who played his daughter, to the attention of the industry.
