Review of Gaslight (1944) by Laura C — 27 Aug 2009
A pretty darn good psychological thriller, wherein a husband slowly tries to drive his wife mad by subtly manipulating the environment around her and then denying that her perception has any basis in reality.
I love the setting- an old Victorian home right in London, England. I thought the acting was great but wasn't exactly blown away by Ingrid Bergman's acting considering she won an Oscar for Lead Actress that year.
After I saw the film I heard the expression, "He's gaslighting her," which is an awesome use of the title of the film (which was originally a play.).
