Screenplay by Paul Schrader
Story by Brian De Palma and Paul Schrader

Obsession is a 1976 American neo noir psychological thriller mystery film directed by Brian De Palma. The screenplay was by Paul Schrader, from a story by De Palma and Schrader. The story is about a New Orleans businessman who is haunted by guilt following the death of his wife and daughter during a kidnapping-rescue attempt gone wrong. Years after the tragedy, he meets and falls in love with a young woman who is the exact look-alike of his long dead wife.

Both De Palma and Schrader have pointed to Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo (1958) as the major inspiration for Obsession's narrative and thematic concerns. Schrader's script was extensively rewritten and pared down by De Palma prior to shooting, causing the screenwriter to proclaim a complete lack of interest in the film's subsequent production and release. -Wikipedia
