Vintage reference photograph of director Jack Clayton on the set of the 1961 film. Adapted by Truman Capote from William Archibald's 1950 stage adaptation of the 1961 Henry James short story "The Turn of the Screw." One of the most successful adaptations of a Henry James work, and a classic of literary horror films, in which Deborah Kerr plays a governess who believes her two young wards are being possessed by spirits. Prior to Capote's involvement with the script, the events occurring were presented as literally happening, but Capote's edits introduce the possibility of plausible insanity in the case of the governess as an explanation (though this is famously never clarified by the film's end). Capote worked on this script concurrently with "In Cold Blood," and even so is said to have turned it around in only eight weeks. The film utilized notably dramatic staging and editing, and was also the first to use synthesized electronic sounds, created by Daphne Oram. Nominated for the Palme d'Or. Shot on location in England. 10 x 8 inches. Very Good plus, lightly age toned. Criterion Collection 727.…
