What shall I say when my lord comes a calling? What shall I say when he knocks on my door? What shall I say when his feet enter softly? Leaving the marks of his grave on my floor. Enter my lord. Come from your prison. Come from your grave, for the moon is a risen. Welcome, my lord.

THE INNOCENTS 1961, dir. Jack Clayton

Dread by the Decade: Gaslight

👻 You can support or commission me on Ko-Fi! ❤️

Source Material: Gas Light by Patrick Hamilton Year: 1940 Genre: Psychological Horror, Mystery Rating: UR (Rec: PG-13) Country: United Kingdom Language: English Runtime: 1 hour 24 minutes

Director: Thorold Dickinson Cinematographer: Bernard Knowles Editor: Sidney Cole Writers: A. R. Rawlinson, Bridget Boland Composer: Richard Addinsell Cast: Diana Wynyard, Anton Walbrook, Frank Pettingell, Cathleen Cordell, Minnie Rayner, Jimmy Hanley

Plot: Hoping to conceal a dark secret, a man tries to convince his new wife that she is losing her mind.

Review: A tale of psychological manipulation and domestic abuse that emotionally drains the viewer as much as it captivates them.

Overall Rating: 4.5/5

Story: 4.5/5 - Its handling of mental abuse is shockingly realistic and harrowing. And, though its mystery isn't particularly difficult to figure out, the tension it invokes is thick.

Performances: 4.5/5 - Walbrook is incredible as Paul, so believable in how he portrays an abuser who flips from doting to cruel that it's often hard to watch. Wynyard is similarly great as the fraying Bella.

Cinematography: 4/5 - Good use of layering to create disorienting shots.

Editing: 4/5

Music: 4/5

Choreography & Stunts: 4/5 - The can-can sequence is brief but hypnotic.

Sets: 4.5/5 - Though limited, they're lavish and feel lived-in.

Costumes, Hair, & Make-Up: 4/5 - The costuming is just gorgeous—especially Bella's.

Trigger Warnings:

Mild violence

Domestic and emotional abuse

Implications of sex under false pretenses

Brief sexual harassment

Misogyny (period appropriate)

Mentions of institutionalization

Classism (period appropriate)
