Anton Adolf Wöhlbruck aka Anton Walbrook. Décedé un 9 août 1967 prèsque sur la scène. Trés grand acteur! Chapeau!

As a general rule of thumb, I feel like it's a bad idea when you've gone out of your way to specifically break down someone's sanity that you don't direct them to a weapon around you when you're tied up and helpless. Just like. As a thought.

But if every any man deserved to get slit from stem to stern, it is this asshole, so fair enough.

I wasn't actually aware there'd been another movie four years earlier, I've only ever seen the Ingrid Bergman one. Cool!

Watching Gaslight. And the movie (and probably also the original stage play) never seem satisfied that I hate the bad guy enough.

He better get such a comeuppance!

Getting ready to argue with my film teacher about Gaslight 1940 vs Gaslight 1944 this Friday. Should be fun.
