Joseph Losey directed this forgotten masterpiece about a Welsh writer, Tyvian Jones, living in Venice and reaping the benefits of a successful novel and film career. His glamorous life of Venetian estates, film festivals, and parties is rudely interrupted when a mysterious woman named Eva (Jeanne Moreau) and her escort break into his canal-side villa seeking shelter on a stormy night. Tyvian is immediately infatuated with the shriekingly blasé Eva, who greets his initial advances with a swift hit to the head with an ashtray but nevertheless proceeds to draw him in to a torturous and obsessive relationship.
