沉眠之虎 (1954)

　　The direction of The Sleeping Tiger was credited to Victor Hanbury, but this was actually a pseudonym for the blacklisted Joseph Losey, whose first British film this was. Alexander Knox stars as psychiatrist Clive Esmond, who believes that he can stem the criminal tendencies of young fugitive from justice Frank Clements (Dirk Bogarde). To this end, Esmond hides Clements in his own home. At first hostile towards the handsome crook, Esmond's wife Glenda (Alexis Smith) gradually warms up to her house guest, and before long she and Clements are casting lustful glances at one another. She intends to run off with Clements and make a new life for herself, when suddenly he decides that he actually wants to reform. If nothing else, The Sleeping Tiger is a fascinating precursor to the sexual tensions prevalent in Losey's later Harold Pinter adaptations. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi 　　译文(2): 《沉睡的老虎》的导演是维克多 · 汉伯里，但这实际上是被列入黑名单的约瑟夫 · 罗西的化名，他的第一部英国电影就是这部电影。亚历山大 · 诺克斯饰演精神病学家克莱夫 · 埃斯蒙德，他相信自己能够阻止法官弗兰克 · 克莱门茨(德克 · 博加德饰)年轻逃犯的犯罪倾向。为此，埃斯蒙德把克莱门茨藏在自己家里。起初，埃斯蒙德的妻子格伦达(亚历克西斯 · 史密斯饰)对这位英俊的骗子充满敌意，渐渐地对她的客人产生了好感，不久，她和克莱门茨互相投以淫荡的目光。她打算和克莱门茨私奔，开始新的生活，但他突然决定改过自新。别的不说，《沉睡的老虎》是罗西后期改编的哈罗德 · 品特中普遍存在的性紧张关系的一个引人入胜的先驱。哈尔 · 埃里克森，罗维
