Q1 Which one film would you wish to share with future generations?
The Innocents is for me a masterpiece in black and white in which Deborah Kerr gives the best performance of her career. It is the most confidently paced, moving, erotic realisation of the ghost story that is Henry James's Turn of the Screw. A wonderful depiction of the power of the mind, peopled with memorable performances from all concerned, with special marks going to the eerily mature characterisations of the children. Glamourous, beautiful, hair-raising.
