    Top Notch Nonsense Episode 78.

    Provocative Director Series-Brian DePalma-Obsession (1976)/The Fury (1978)

    Before and after Carrie Brian DePalma made these two movies about tramatizing The Wrong Young Women. Men Feeling Responsible for their women’s death. Melodramatic Psychological thrills. Ya can’t Do What Ya wanna Do When ya wanna do It because of psychological or supernatural abilities. We talk about them. The Fury follows a theme of parents trying to control their children. That’s a hint for what movies are coming down the road.
