Ingrid Bergman plays Paula, an aspiring young opera singer who falls in love with Gregory when studying in Italy. After the two are married, Paula is convinced to move to London. She divulges to Gregory that she actually owns a house there - it was bequeathed to her by her aunt who was murdered in the house and the murder has never been solved. Not having thought about the house in a long time, Paula believes Gregory’s love can help her through whatever pain she may have felt about her aunt's murder. Over time at the house, Paula begins to forget things, lose things, and imagine things - such as an animosity with the new Cockney housekeeper Nancy (Angela Lansbury). Paula becomes isolated in the house and with Gregory’s quiet insistence, feels that she may indeed be going mad.

When this movie was produced, MGM attempted to have all prints of the previous version, Gaslight (1940), destroyed. These efforts were ultimately unsuccessful, though that version of the movie is rarely seen.

Since it’s inception in 1992, the Vintage Film Festival has delighted audiences with its three-day festival which celebrate early black & white movies up to the films of the 1970s.
