Our take
The film that almost ended Michael Powell’s career, this controversial classic was described by Martin Scorsese as “one of the great films about cinema.” A seedy tale of voyeurism and trauma that trades in the audience’s complicity with the killer, Peeping Tom has lost none of its chilling power.
