This screening is presented by Dark Dream Cinema, a monthly film series devoted to the creeping undercurrents of the arthouse scene hosted by Michael Morlaine

“An elegant, sinister and scalp-prickling ghost story – as scary in its way as Rosemary’s Baby or The Exorcist.” -Betsy Reed, The Guardian

Often cited as the finest English ghost story ever filmed, this adaptation of Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw concerns Miss Giddens (Deborah Kerr), the new governess of an orphaned pair of siblings who exhibit strange behavior. While earning their trust, Giddens falls deeper into their dreamworld of sounds and sightings, begging the question as to whether their spectral visions are truly manifest or merely an illusion. Cowritten for the screen by Truman Capote, and shot in deep-focus CinemaScope by the incomparable Freddie Francis, The Innocents is a masterpiece of visual elegance and understated dread, orchestrating unease with careful consideration and maximum restraint.
