Winner of the Cannes Film Festival Best Actor Award for all three of its stars (Stockwell, Dillman and Welles), Richard Fleischer's stylish and compelling thriller sees two law students murder a young boy in cold blood to prove their intellectual superiority. Sadistic bully Artie Straus (Bradford Dillman) and timid introvert Judd Steiner (Dean Stockwell) commit the 'perfect crime', but their arrogance leads to their arrest. Loosely based on the notorious 1924 murder trial of thrill-killers Leopold and Loeb, this outstanding film also features cinema legend Orson Welles as the criminal defence lawyer who takes on their case.Special Features:New 4K restorationThe Guardian Interview with Richard Fleischer (1981, audio only): the award-winning director discusses his career after a screening of CompulsionThe Guardian Interview with Richard Fleischer (1994): Fleischer returns to the NFT for this filmed interviewOrson Welles in the Courtroom Scene from Compulsion (1959, audio only): reproduction of the original 7 vinylLobby cards, posters and stills galleryOriginal theatrical trailerOptional DTS-HD 5.1 Master AudioHoH subtitles on the feature and the trailer
