THE GLASS CEILING

Eloy de la Iglesia, Spain, 1971, Severin Films, Horror

“This is like an upscale Lifetime movie; I’m in love! It's just so relatable to the early pandemic in 2020, where many of us worked at home or were unemployed. We all invent narratives for our neighbors and sounds.” - Dakota Noot, Letterboxd

In his landmark ‘71 feature, writer/director Eloy de la Iglesia – who’d go on to create such subversively disturbing films as CANNIBAL MAN, THE CREATURE and NAVAJEROS – brought an unnerving new perspective to female madness. When her husband leaves on a business trip, a frustrated housewife begins to obsess over unfamiliar noises in their apartment building and suspects that an upstairs neighbor has committed murder in this lurid REAR WINDOW riff.
