What's that? You say there's a movie called Gaslight? Sorry, dear. Never heard of it. You must have imagined the whole thing.

ingrid bergman, if you got internet in the afterlife and you read this, wait for me.

Ingrid Bergman ain't nuthing ta fuck wit.

One of the most effective psychological thrillers I've ever seen. Beautifully shot and paced so meekly compared to modern head-trips that it's so much easier to fall into the movie's rhythm, and to get sucked along with its deceit. Charles Boyer is an all-time villain here.

I know I should readily hand this at least 4 stars if not more and when I first saw it 10 years ago, I imagine that’s what I would have given it. But the truth is that it’s really frustrating to watch a woman be psychologically abused for almost 2 hours and just take it and take it and take it until a man comes along and points out the completely obvious to her because she’s a woman and can’t figure it out herself. At least when she does finally get her shit together she gets catty as hell.

It’s honestly a very well made movie with delightful performances and I am 110% team Joseph Cotten: Lowkey Stud, but the story is so offensive to women that the highest I can go for this is 3.5 stars and that’s just the more enlightened world I’m out here living in.

the most unrealistic part of every ingrid bergman movie is that all these men don’t just immediately fall down dead at the mere sight of her

charles boyer: opens his mouth

me: LIIIIIAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!

this hurt me watching ingrid go through this.. i wanted to SUPLEX THAT MAN!!!

Discover this film through TV news introducing the term of Gaslighting. Though the story only involves a few characters, the combination of the plot, sound, and protagonists really create a scary ambiance, especially the stress you've felt with the lead actress. Great movie!

“Because I am mad, I hate you. Because I am mad, I have betrayed you. And because I’m mad, I’m rejoicing in my heart, without a shred of pity, without a shred of regret — watching you go with glory in my heart!”

honestly, hard same

Between the 1940 British version,the 1960 German TV movie version,and this 1944 version,this one is truly the best out of those three as well as being one oft he best thrillers of its time.

'Nuff Said !!

The first man to ever gaslight a woman. Incredible.

Slow building psychological/emotional abuse is the most gut wrenching form of screen violence

me and the spouse took turns napping throughout this one after returning late this morning post a long-winded midsummers eve but as the pace isn't exactly hot tamale it's pretty easy making out the significant aspects while half-conscious
furtherly the piece works well as a proof of concept and ingrid pulls thru as she usually does, wasn't all that intense though

Finally watched the originator of the term. Ingrid Bergman is truly magnificent in this and I can see why she won an Oscar for it! Amazing subtlety of looks. The costumes too especially for the women are beautiful. Really striking.
