Liebestraum is a 1991 American mystery film written and directed by Mike Figgis, and starring Kevin Anderson, Pamela Gidley, Bill Pullman, Zach Grenier, Alicia Witt, Taina Elg, and Kim Novak in her last film role to date. Set in a small Illinois town, it follows an architect professor who begins an affair with his college friend's photographer wife while visiting his dying birthmother.
