Brand New HD Master by Paramount Preservation – From a 4K Scan of the 35mm Original Camera Negative! Description: Happiness is a tightrope. Some walk it successfully. Some fail. And some kill to preserve it… This taut British thriller tells the story of Ellen (Patricia Owens), a young American happily married to Jason, a rich English businessman (Terence Cooper). One day Ellen frantically informs her husband that she is being followed. Bewildered by this strange occurrence, he tries to find out why.
