The listing, VHS "SEANCE ON A WET AFTERNOON"RARE PSYCHIC DEVISES PLAN TO KIDNAP A CHILD and "FIND IT" FOR POLICE! has ended.
ACADEMY AWARD WINNER KIM STANLEY STARS!
Stunning film of the staged kidnapping of a child by a demented medium and her cuckolded, guilt-ridden husband. Beautifully photographed in b&W, the film has a grey, somber feel to it that illustrates the emptiness of the childless couple's lives. The plan is to kidnap the child then stage a seance to help "find" the child to further enhance the medium's reputation and career. The husband trembles with fright and guilt while the medium is convinced that this is the "answer". She is "guided" by Arthur---her "spirit" guide---that is actually the child they lost at birth as stillborn. ASTOUNDING performances by stage actress Kim Stanley and Richard Attenborough as the couple carry this film brilliantly to it's gripping conclusion.
The subject matter is sensitive (especially today) but the film is a powerful masterwork of mood and psychological character study. I strongly recommend this for true cinema explorers.In moody B&W. which is effective for this movie of 2002. KIM STANLEY, RICHARD ATTENBOROUGH are wonderful
