Synopsis:

The word ‘Gaslighting’ – making someone doubt their sanity – comes from this popular 1944 film in which a thieving husband tries to make his wife go mad so that he can commit her to hospital.

Set in fog-bound London in 1888, this ‘noir’ thriller stars Ingrid Bergman as the wife tormented by her husband, played by Charles Boyer. Soon after their marriage, she begins to notice strange goings-on in their London house – missing pictures, strange footsteps in the night, and gaslights that dim without being touched.



Cast:
Charles Boyer, Ingrid Bergman, Joseph Cotten
