This genuinely frightening, exquisitely made supernatural gothic stars Deborah Kerr (BLACK NARCISSUS) as an emotionally fragile governess who comes to suspect that there is something very, very wrong with her precocious new charges. A psychosexually intensified adaptation of Henry James's classic THE TURN OF THE SCREW, co-written by Truman Capote (IN COLD BLOOD) and directed by Jack Clayton (ROOM AT THE TOP), The Innocents is a triumph of narrative economy and technical expressiveness, from it's chilling sound design to the stygian depths of it's widescreen cinematography by Freddie Francis (THE ELEPHANT MAN).
