Gaslight (1940)


Anglo-American Film Corporation
Directed by Thorold Dickinson
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Warner Bros)

Newlyweds move into a mansion that has been empty for years after a murder. The wife begins to notice small things missing and other oddities, but her husband proves her wrong and she begins to think she is losing her mind. Of course it is all a ruse by the husband. Disappointing talky and stagey adaptation of the original play, I still prefer the 1944 version.
