Repulsion

N.p. N.p., 1965. Three reference photographs featuring Roman Polanski and Catherine Deneuve on the set of the 1965 film. Shot by still photographer Laurie Turner.

Two of the photos in this set reflect one another, one showing Polanski in the foreground and Deneuve in a mirror, and the other in reverse. The third shows Polanski at work on one of the film's claustrophobic final scenes, wherein hands are emerging from both walls of a narrow hallway. The third still has a mimeo snipe on the verso describing the film.

Polanski's second feature film, and first film in English, heralding the arrival of one of the twentieth century's greatest directors.
