Intro by Kevin Schaeffer, Director of Restoration and Library Management at the Walt Disney Company
Dr. Constance Petersen (Ingrid Bergman) is a psychiatrist whose understanding of human nature is called into question when the mysterious Dr. Anthony Edwardes (Gregory Peck) becomes the new chief of staff at her institution. The bookish and detached Constance plummets into a whirlwind of tangled identities and feverish psychoanalysis, where the greatest risk is to fall in love. A transcendent love story replete with taut excitement and startling imagery, Spellbound is classic Hitchcock, featuring stunning performances, an Academy Award®-winning score by Miklos Rozsa, and a captivating dream sequence by Surrealist icon Salvador Dalí.

Description

Over a half-century in the making, witness the stunning collaboration of two of the world's most renowned artists. Destino began in 1945 as a joint venture between Salvador Dalí and Walt Disney, but production was halted when the studio ran into financial difficulties. Finally completed by Walt's nephew Roy in 2003, Destino features the tragic love story of Chronos, the personification of time, and a mortal woman as they seek each other out across the surreal landscapes so often used in the paintings of Salvador Dalí.
