The Innocents (1961) Jack Clayton's creepy film of Henry James's Turn of the Screw.
Deborah Kerr is repressed as the spinster governess who comes to suspect
that angelic children Martin Stephens and Pamela Franklin have fallen
under the spell of a couple of briefly glimpsed ghosts. Screenwriter
Truman Capote tries to impose a rationalisation, whereby the ghosts
come from Kerr's own frustrated psyche, but Clayton doesn't skimp on
the real spook stuff. Peter Wyngarde, later the improbably moustached
Jason King, leers through windows as the chief spectre. First Published In: Empire (issue unknown). Visit Kim's Official Website at www.johnnyalucard.com
