About the film

What it’s about

Paul and Bella Mallen move into a house where, twenty years earlier, Alice Barlow was murdered for her jewels. Bella soon feels unsettled: the gaslight dims without reason. A retired detective, Rough, suspects Paul is not what he seems and that the old crime is not finished.

What hooks you

Frank Pettingell is Rough, the detective. The film adapts Patrick Hamilton's play.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys slow-burning psychological menace, Victorian settings, and stories where the line between perception and reality is deliberately blurred.
