DESCRIPTION:

Kim Novak, who rose to fame in the 1955 classic Picnic, gives one of the finest performances of her career in Of Human Bondage, a passion-charged drama costarring Laurence Harvey (The Manchurian Candidate). Philip Carey (Harvey) is a medical student whose one real obsession is Mildred Rogers (Novak). Though Mildred is nothing more than a cockney waitress with high aspirations, he becomes totally besotted with her tawdry charms. She leads him on with quick kisses and coy smiles, but Mildred is a woman of alluring contradictions, as capable of deception as shes capable of delight. Philip soon finds himself caught in her web, even though his uncontrollable fascination may cost him his friends, the women who love him and his career as a doctor.
