MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“You mustn't be unhappy over a man who doesn't exist anymore. I'm not the Max Carey that you once knew. I'm all burned out, Mary. Don't you see, I'm dead inside. I should feel ashamed . . . degraded. But I just can't feel anything.”
Lowell Sherman in What Price Hollywood?

Faire la lumière sur le «gaslighting»

Dans un essai incandescent consacré au «», cette technique de manipulation par le discours, revient aux origines de la notion: le film de «Gaslight» devient la matrice de l’étude de « l’art de faire taire les femmes» et de ce qui nous arrive politiquement aujourd’hui.

Treated myself to a little gaslight tonight, with the film that gave the manipulative behavior its name.







Gaslight (1944) Official Trailer - Charles Boyer, Ingrid Bergman Movie HD
by Rotten Tomatoes Classic Trailers on YouTube


I was a little startled at how transparent the script was. The mystery was no mystery at all; the course of each plot element was clearly charted out from the moment it was introduced. Maybe it’s my generation’s overfamiliarity with the tropes, or maybe the direction of the film was always intended to be obvious, but it still felt like a weak point.

But any weakness in the story was more than balanced by the strength of the leads’ performances. Bergman’s hysteria is very measured, rising gradually and never quite reaching crescendo before slumping into numb acceptance. Charles Boyer inhabits stone-faced cruelty like no one I’ve ever seen. Joseph Cotton guest stars as Joseph Cotton, and Angela Lansbury is startlingly young.

In all a very satisfying experience. Highly recommend.

📽️ A Woman's Face, 1941
⭐ 4.5/5
Oct 18, Vudu & TCM

Extremely underrated and pretty spicy for a Hays Code era film. Actually had to watch this one twice, it's so good. Visually beautiful and narratively interesting, despite the rushed ending. Joan Crawford's performance is maybe the best I've seen from her. And then there's nasty, nasty Conrad Veidt. He very nearly steals the movie from her. Shocked he didn't get second billing.
