Cape Fear
J. Lee Thompson / US, 1961 / 106 min.
Huge suspense in this classic thriller about revenge, featuring spine-chilling acting by Robert Mitchum and Gregory Peck. They have each other in a death grip – moving and iconic. Years later, Scorsese made a remake.
Max Cady (Robert Mitchum) served eight years for rape and as soon as he is freed is assigned to terrorise lawyer Sam Bowden (Gregory Peck), who testified against him as well as Bowden’s wife (Polly Bergen) and teenage daughter (Lori Martin).
