Cinema Classics: Gaslight (1944)

“This 1944 film is one of the few psychological thrillers that is genuinely psychological, depending on subtle clues — a gesture, an intonation — to thought and character.”
— Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader

KPAC presents GASLIGHT (1944) as part of our new Cinema Classics series, featuring films chosen by our Classics Film Committee! Ten years after her aunt was murdered in their London home, a woman returns from Italy in the 1880s to resume residence with her new husband. His obsessive interest in the home rises from a secret that may require driving his wife insane. This superbly creepy noir thriller is just as relevant today as it was 80 years ago. Masterfully shot in black and white this is a must see on the big screen for cinephiles.

Rated: Approved | 1 hr 54 min | Tickets: $6 General Admission / Film Pass
