The Technicolor expressionism of Douglas Sirk reached a fever pitch with this operatic tragedy, which finds the director pushing his florid visuals and his critiques of American culture to their subversive extremes. AIcoholism, nymphomania, impotence, and deadly jealousy—these are just some of the toxins coursing through a massively weaIthy, degenerate Texan oiI family. When a sensible secretary (Lauren BacaII) has the misfortune of marrying the cIan’s neurotic scion (Robert Stack), it drives a wedge between him and his IifeIong best friend (Rock Hudson) that unleashes a maeIstrom of psychosexual angst and fury. Featuring an unforgettably debauched, Oscar-winning supporting performance by Dorothy Malone and some of Sirk’s most eye-popping mise-en-scène, Written on the Wind is as perverse a famiIy portrait as has ever been spIashed across the screen.
