Circle of Two aka Obsession (1980 Jules Dassin)

Fifteen year old schoolgirl Tatum O'Neal falls in love with sixty year old artist Richard Burton. I mean, it's a must, isn't it? I rather enjoyed it. And it's got one of those sad, sort of 'European' themes that I'm a sucker for (by Bernard Hoffer). Filmed in Toronto. Based on the novel 'A Lesson in Love' by Marie-Terese Baird.

The despicable parents are Patricia Collins and Robin Gammell. Michael Wincott is the horrible ex.

It's apparently 106 minutes and in 1.85:1 - our copy was 98 minutes and in 4x3 (though didn't look badly cropped).

Count Dracula and the Vampire Bride is not a real film.
