![]() So, I recommend you find this wherever you can and give it a chance. It is absolutely amazing, and I could watch it again and still enjoy it, and that is quite rare for me. ![]() All in all, I recommend this without hesitation. If it had a bit of a touchup, this movie would be perfect. She truly did deserve the Best Actress Oscar for her acting, but nothing could mask the fact that the climax was just too weak. It was just too dull to me, and the only part I really liked was Paula's wicked sarcasm towards Gregory while they're in the attic. The one thing I didn't like about this otherwise nearly flawless movie was the climax. You wouldn't expect a missing watch found in her purse to be such a big deal, but it is such a strong scene. Then she bursts into tears, and it was so absolutely amazing how the scene was pulled off. The best scene in the whole movie took place at the reception, when Gregory tells Paula he lost his watch, and then finds it in her purse. Many times watching this, I was thinking, "He is so terrible to her!" It was so psychological, how everything eveloped. Bergman portrays her character's emotions to the point that you feel the same way she does. Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyet were amazing. Is Paula going crazy, or is she being haunted by her dead aunt's spirit.or is it something far more sinister? I liked this movie a lot. Then, many times, she starts hearing footsteps, and the gaslights are going down a lot. Then things she knows she had put somewhere or remembered doing seem nonexistent, and Paula is left to wonder if her sanity is in check. In fact, he tells her a lot of things.and she believes him. Not too long after, Paula starts to become "forgettful," as Gregory tells her. ![]() She and Gregory plan to marry, and after they do, they move to London, back to the exact house Paula lived in. Developing out of a racially borderline, transitional neighborhood populated with apartments, music schools, and antiques stores, its pioneering establishments included the Crystal Palace theater, the Gaslight Bar, Smokey Joe’s Tavern, the Laughing Buddha coffeehouse, and the Dark Side jazz club. Paula goes to stay in Italy, and some time later, meets Gregory. When Paula was younger, her aunt with whom lived with in Thornton Square in London was murdered by a strangler roaming the streets. Not being a big fan of older movies myself (for some reason I really don't know) I decided to go out on a recommendation and rent "Gaslight." And I must be honest, I was impressed. ![]()
