Dark Obsession -- Caring nothing that he has killed a woman in a hit-and-run accident and that one of the passengers (Douglas Hodge) may go to the police, a wealthy English aristocrat (Gabriel Byrne) is consumed by the fear that his wife (Amanda Donohoe) is unfaithful. Director Nick Broomfield's murky tale of violent sexual obsession offers a world of callous immorality where the sole well-intentioned character pays dearly for his pangs of conscience. A number of explicit sexual encounters, other scenes with nudity, implied incest, calculated indifference to human life and minimal rough language. (O) (NC-17) 1991
