This was Visconti's first movie and it was so amazing that it started a whole movie genre (neo-realism). It is a fascinating story and the directing is rather amazing. Definitely worth a look and a must see for any movie lovers.

" Story is based on the James M. Cain story The Postman Always Rings Twice and Visconti happened to have a lot of problems to premier his film in the USA, which is not a surprise after the war and the relation between USA and Italy, and the fact that Visconti didn't even have all the rights for filming Cain's novel. After Ossessione Visconti directed few films based on a novel and Ossessione as this his debut film is definitely one of his greatest ones of them all. Film is full of weird relations"
