Crazy Love

"Being obsessive means being the prisoner of a mechanism, of an increasingly punishing trap, with no end in sight" Jacques Lacan. America, the late 50s. Wealthy lawyer Burt Pugach falls madly in love with a beautiful working-class girl, Linda. His passion evolves into an extraordinary erotic fixation; when Linda begins to have second thoughts, Burt is prepared to go all the way to prevent anyone else from having her. Based on a sinister, stranger-than-fiction real life love story characterized by extreme violence and extreme affection, Dan Klores builds a suspenseful documentary proving that love can be both blind and mad. The film had its world premiere at Sundance Film Festival.
