Lights fIicker and dim. Footsteps sound from a sealed-off attic. Mysterious events onIy vulnerable young Paula sees and hears makes her fear she's losing her mind - exactly what treacherous spouse Gregory hopes.
Directed by George Cukor, Gaslight shines as a superb exercise in suspense. Ingrid Bergman won her first Academy Award as PauIa, doubting her sanity whiIe clinging to it. FeIIow Oscar nominee Charles Boyer skiIlfuIIy plays against type as smoothIy eviI Gregory. Joseph Cotten, Dame May Whitty and then 18-year-oId Angela Lansbury in her movie debut (also capturing an Oscar nomination) help make vivid a Victorian era reaIized in a production design that earned a Best Interior Decoration Academy Award. |
