Dana and Tom welcome guest, Andrew Corns (Host, The Revisionist Almanac - @revalmanac) to discuss the noir mystery thriller, Gaslight (recently celebrating its 80th anniversary): directed by George Cukor, written by John Van Druten, Walter Reisch, and John L. Balderston, music by Bronislaw Kaper, starring Charles Boyer, Ingrid Bergman, Joseph Cotten, and Angela Lansbury.

Plot Summary: "Gaslight" is a gripping psychological thriller that delves into the dark depths of manipulation and deception. Set in Victorian London, the film follows the newlywed Paula as she moves into her ancestral home. However, as strange occurrences begin to unfold and Paula's sanity is called into question, the true horror emerges: her husband's insidious gaslighting tactics to convince her she's losing her mind. In a spellbinding performance, Ingrid Bergman captures Paula's descent into fear and doubt, while Charles Boyer masterfully portrays the sinister husband. With its haunting atmosphere and expertly crafted suspense, "Gaslight" remains a timeless classic that leaves audiences on the edge of their seats.
