In this episode, I talk about George Sluizer's 1988 film "The Vanishing." It's about Rex and Saskia, a Dutch couple who go on vacation in France and have their lives turned upside down when Saskia is abducted. To give away more would be to spoil this masterpiece of suspense. There are spoilers in this episode. Consider making this podcast sustainable by supporting it on Patreon.Subscribe to the Her Head in Films Newsletter.Follow me on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram.Original logo by Dhiyanah HassanFull show notes:My episode on Lynne Littman's TestamentTed BundyI"ll Be Gone in the Dark (HBO Series)Golden State KillerHome FiresThe Bletchley CircleThe Crimson FieldDisappeared (tv show)My episode on Charles Laughton's The Night of the HunterMy episode on Bong Joon-Ho's Memories of MurderBTK  My episode on Francois Ozon's Under the SandThe Stranger Beside Me by Anne RuleOrpheus and EurydiceRomeo and JulietMy sources:Criterion Collection edition of The VanishingGeorge Sluizer interview
