Psychiatre londonien réputé, le Dr. Michael Glass est le meilleur dans son domaine. Lorsque le commissaire Roy Washburn lui demande d'évaluer psychologiquement une femme mêlée à la mort mystérieuse d'un célèbre sportif, son univers bascule... Catherine Tramell est une romancière américaine, et les meurtres qu'elle dépeint dans ses romans se réalisent de plus en plus souvent dans la vie réelle. Entre elle et le Dr. Glass, l'attirance est immédiate. Glass est intrigué par cette superbe femme qui réveille ses instincts les plus sombres. Piégé dans un jeu qu'il croit maîtriser, fasciné par sa beauté, il transgresse peu à peu toutes les limites qu'il s'était fixées. Alors que les meurtres frappent de plus en plus près, un face-à-face sans pitié s'engage entre le psychiatre et cette femme aussi séduisante que redoutable...

L'homme que je suis

Dec 17, 1975
Multi primée, cette adaptation de l'autobiographie à succès de Quentin Crisp, The Naked Civil Servant, présente un homme luttant pour vivre un style de vie ouvertement gay et flamboyant à une époque où l'homosexualité était illégale en Grande-Bretagne. Son comportement extravagant a choqué la société britannique intolérante d'avant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et a provoqué de fréquentes attaques homophobes, mais Crisp a catégoriquement refusé de faire des compromis et est devenu une célébrité culte et une icône gay internationale. Drôle, tragique et parfois réconfortante, cette histoire sans faille d’un homme non conventionnel, fortement mise en scène par Jack Gold, est devenue un classique instantané de la TV britannique.
