(Joseph Losey, 1962)
Release date: 25 March 2024
Standard Edition Blu-ray
Jeanne Moreau (Jules et Jim) and Stanley Baker (Yesterday’s Enemy) star as two lovers caught in a deadly affair in Joseph Losey’s 1962 adaptation of the James Hadley Chase novel.
A highly personal project for Losey, Eve was blighted by producer interference, and was heavily cut for its general release under the title Eva.
