There have been several adaptations of The Turn Of The Screw, but none as effective as this 1961 gem. Working on the axiom that less-is-more, Clayton shows great and deliberate restraint, and it pays off.
Kerr plays governess to two children one of which may or may not be the victim of possession. Anything more would be giving it away.
Certainly in the top ten list of Horror/Ghost chronicle films of all time, The Innocents compares favorably with “The Haunting” (the unique ’63 version) . Kerr’s spectral visions are as solid as the furniture — they’re honest harder to catch, and lot scarier; the film is an example of how tiny one needs to resort to SPFX when one knows how to invent drama.

On the down side the unusual was photographed in lush monochrome cinemascope, and the only version released to date (that I’m aware of) is pan-an-scan, so you’re missing about 40% of the image.
Still, even in this runt obtain, “The Innocents” is as scary as anything that’s advance out of Hollywood inthe last twenty years (er, I mean deliberately scarey — the remake of The Haunting was scarey for all the contemptible reasons) .
Please let there be a DVD soon!
I saw this when it first came out, and the performances by the children, Miles and Flora, note acting skills far beyond their years. Calling Ms. Kerr, the governess, “Miss Giddons dear” and faintly mocking tones, they dominate the movie; their haunting and possession by the slow servants, Quint and Miss Jessel, are something to glance. One of the scenes that alarmed me the most was the one where Flora is dancing, in the cramped stone gazebo, to the haunting music box theme, by the lake, and the tedious Miss Jessel appearing, watching her from the middle of the lake, seemingly suspended on some water plants, looking gloomy in her shaded mourning dress. Flora seems to be dancing for her, and the do is chilling. The entire movie has a neverending undercurrent of alarm, albeit collected awe, and you never know, literally, what is around the next corner of the great house. Quint appears to Miss Giddons, outside a window, during a game of veil and go perceive, and Miss Jessel glides eerily by a hallway, in her requisite dismal mourning dress. The housekeeper, Mrs. Horrible, stands by the children and refuses to gain they are anything less than “innocent”, while Miss Giddons adopts a more pragmatic (and upright) belief of how damaged and under the influence of these two entities the two children really are. Miss Giddons has a dramatic showdown with Flora, by forcing her to answer the existence of Miss Jessel in the scene by the lake, and afterwards the traumatized Flora is taken away by the housekeeper and Miss Giddons is left alone in the house with Miles. The final scene was, and is, unexcited gruesome even by today’s standards, as Miss Giddons kisses the dull child, Miles, on the mouth, with disturbing passion, but the scene fits perfectly into the yarn and underscores the complicated and turbulent relationship Miss Giddons has with the children, expecially young Miles. Filmed on one of those incredibly sumptuous estates that are so plentiful in England, the cinematography is beneficial, and this really should be viewed on DVD, with the sharpness and clarity of the recent.
