The chilling performance, the intense rivalry, the Gothic setting, and the ambiguous emotional entanglements. . . Only in this way is it worthy of the name "The Screws Are Tightening". ....

1. The deep focus lens and low-key, high-contrast lighting of the whole film are simply not more suitable for a psychological horror film. Several scenes are scared from different psychological levels; 2. Two kisses between the heroine and the little boy, let The whole story moves to a level that is more mysterious and ambiguous; 3. Who is possessed? Whose demon is it? Who is having a nightmare? Who wakes up...

The excitement is mixed into the fierce confrontation between the sexual consciousness of adults and children in the shocking effect. The demon in the heart of the little boy is also the homeomorphic prototype of the hidden Eros demon in the subconsciousness of the female teacher. The two are in this castle. The encounter in is really a natural Freudian...

This old movie contains almost all the horror elements I like: black nursery rhymes, music boxes, gorgeous old houses, elusive children... and dark and tortuous spiritual paths. Every time I watch this kind of old movie, I must sigh. Now all the tricks of the movie have been exhausted by these old movies. The title of the film has actually been exhausted. Unfortunately, I didn't see a comment like I thought. Not...

Innocent man notes
"Screws are tightening" is famous for the structure of stacked bed frames. It is difficult to shoot like this when adapted into a movie (the Grand Budapest Hotel did it). At the beginning of the film, the female teacher's monologue also created truth and falsehood in a concise way. Difficult...

Gloomy
The most frightening thing is not the skeleton that jumps out suddenly, but the gloom of the heart; it is not what you see, but imagination. Even if the sun is shining, it can make the cold climb up the spine.
The Innocents is a classic in horror movies. It is gentle and elegant without skeletons,...

Mrs. Grose: [referring to Peter Quint and Miss Jessel's abusive relationship] A person ought to keep quiet about it.
Miss Giddens: You must tell me.
Mrs. Grose: Oh, miss, there's things I've seen I... I'm ashamed to say.
Miss Giddens: Go on.
Mrs. Grose: Rooms... used by daylight... as though they were dark woods.
Miss Giddens: They didn't care that you saw them? And the children?
Mrs. Grose: I can't say, miss. I... I don't know what the children saw. But they used to follow Quint and Miss Jessel, trailing along behind, hand in hand, whispering. There was too much whispering in this house, miss.
Miss Giddens: Oh, yes, I can imagine. Yes, I can imagine what sort of things they whispered about. Quint, Miles. I can hear them together.
Mrs. Grose: But there was nothing wrong in Master Miles wanting to be with Quint. Quint taught him to ride and took him walking. The poor lad needed someone to...
Miss Giddens: To corrupt him?
Mrs. Grose: But Master Miles is a good boy, miss. There's nothing wicked in him.
Miss Giddens: Unless he's deceiving us. Unless they're both deceiving us. The innocents.
Mrs. Grose: Innocents they are, miss. It's not fair. You have no right to accuse them of...
Miss Giddens: Oh, forgive me, Mrs. Grose. I'm not accusing. I'm just trying to put it together, to understand. Tell me, were the children happy?
Mrs. Grose: Oh, they seemed to be. The same as now. But sometimes I used to wonder if they really cared for them, those two... or if they weren't just using them.
Miss Giddens: Using them?
Mrs. Grose: Yes, of course they were... and still are.

The Uncle: Miss Giddens, may I ask you a somewhat personal question? Do you have an imagination?
Miss Giddens: Oh!
[chuckles]
Miss Giddens: Oh, yes, I can answer that. Yes.
The Uncle: Good. Truth is very seldom understood by any but imaginative persons... and I want to be quite truthful.
