I need to see this one again...only saw it once, probably 20 years ago.
I love this film.

I haven't seen it in a few years myself but I remember it as a masterpiece.
All I need hear is "psychological drama" and I'm there.
I liked it better on subsequent viewings; the ending kind of annoyed me the first time.
