Übersicht
With REPULSION, Roman Polanski arrived on the English-Language film scene with the force of a thunderbolt. Like his subsequent masterpieces, ROSEMARY'S BABY and CHINATOWN, this classic study of insanity and sexual repression shows the controversial Polish director's unflinching obsession with shocking subject-matter and masterful use of disturbing imagery.

Shot in icy black-and white, it is a film in which purity is defiled by the warped powers of sensual desires. Carol, a young girl living in Sixties' London, is repelled, yet fascinated, by men. Her radiant beauty attracts the opposite sex, but she shrinks from their advances. Her days are spent in an intensely feminine atmosphere: working in a beauty salon, and clinging to her sister Helen for love. But, as she incarcerates herself in the sinister, shadowy flat, men begin to invade her dreams night and day, mixing her terror with delight as bizarre sexual hallucinations take hold of her mind. the walls start to crack, literally, before her eyes.

Finally, wracked and depraved through her delirium, she is left with only one instinct towards the men who invade her life - that of a killer. To play the part of Carol, Polanski chose the flawlessly beautiful French star, Catherine Deneuve, who gives a brilliant portrayal of a fragile psyche sinking into catatonia. Vibrant and daring, REPULSION is a film which resounds in the memory, from its stunning cinematography to the famous images of hands which can reach out through the cracks in the walls to claw and caress Deneuve as she passes by.
