What is Olivia about?

Nightmares of the past haunt the beautiful, mysterious Olivia, a London resident who begins a passionate affair with American businessman Mike. Trapped in a loveless marriage and traumatized by memories of her mother's brutal murder, Olivia hopes her lover will offer a chance at a new life. However, ghostly voices and brutal murders ignite a fiendish, twist-filled story of double identities, deception, and erotic terror.

Olivia is a 1983 American psychological thriller film directed by Ulli Lommel and starring Suzanna Love and Robert Walker Jr. It follows a young wife in London who is suffering from homicidal schizophrenia, stemming from having witnessed her prostitute mother's murder. She meets an American engineer and has a brief but heated romance with him, and, several years later in Arizona, he encounters a woman who resembles her but claims not to remember him.

Across 29 sampled frames, Olivia builds its coverage from medium shots, with close-ups carrying much of the rest. Cinematographer Jochen Breitenstein keeps most of it in soft, low-key light. Most of the frames play at night or in the failing light of dusk. Focus stays shallow in most of the frames, isolating subjects from their surroundings.
