Upon moving to the quiet English countryside, his flirtatious wife, Amy (Susan George) is taunted by the workmen on their farm. His failure to stand up to them invites their aggression, finally forcing David to decide how far he’ll go to protect his home, his wife and his dignity. A startling drama about human endurance, Straw Dogs has been considered one of cinema’s most disturbing and insightful explorations of man’s violent nature.
