Phaedra (Blu-ray, 1962, Olive Films, OOP) Anthony Perkins, Melina Mercouri

Description: Loosely based on the writings of Euripides, Phaedra stars international screen sensation Melina Mercouri (Never on Sunday) in the title role of a woman, as the theatrical trailer announced, who "had everything... was queen ... until destiny uprooted her world." Set against some of Europe's most beautiful backdrops including Paris, London and Greece, Phaedra presents its classical mythological tropes in a modern setting, where the beautiful, moneyed and bored Phaedra will face the tragic results of a doomed love affair with her stepson, Alexis (Anthony Perkins, Psycho). Raf Vallone is cast as Thanos, Phaedra's Greek shipping magnate husband. Directed by Jules Dassin (Never on Sunday) from a screenplay by Dassin and Margarita Liberaki (The Magic City), Phaedra co-stars Elisabeth Ercy (Fathom), is photographed by Jacques Natteau (Les Misérables) and features costume design by Academy Award®-winner Theoni V. Aldredge (Costume Design, The Great Gatsby - 1974) whose work in Phaedra (credited under the name Denny Vachlioti) was also nominated for Costume Design, Black and White - 1962.
