Obsession was Brian DePalma's homage to his biggest influence, Alfred Hitchcock. Released in 1976, and originally titled, 'Deja Vu,' it is a remake of Hitchcock's film Vertigo.
Story
New Orleans businessman Michael Courtland (portrayed by actor, Cliff Robertson) has his life shattered when his wife, Elizabeth (Genevieve Bujold) and daughter, Amy, are tragically killed in a kidnapped attempt gone wrong.
Years later, on a visit to Europe, he meets an Italian woman, Sandra Portinari (also portrayed by Genevieve Bujold) who bears a striking resemblance to his lost wife.
