Michael Powell's "Peeping Tom" is a visually striking and thematically complex film that delves into voyeurism, violence, and fear, featuring remarkable Eastmancolor cinematography. While it faced harsh initial criticism that nearly ended Powell’s career, its restoration and 4K UHD release highlight its status as a seminal work in cinema history.
