Girl boarding school in decay. Really mystical and quiet. You wouldn’t hit a girl with glasses, would you? Really some parallelles to Midsommar here. - Be dashed if I know… - Is that rouge I see on your cheek, Mademoiselle? - Powder Madame, I find it becoming «But the noblest thing which perished there Was that young faithful heart.» https://victorianweb.org/authors/hemans/deck.html

First saw in 1982. Got the bluray several months ago but it didn't work, but now have one that does, but not the three disc special which I can't find. Still think this is wonderful despite not having an ending as such, if one forgets Sara. It is the mood and the landscape, and the brilliant use of netting on the camera which give it a such a dreamy diffused glow. Haunting and picturesque, the sense of eroticism and tension underneath the everyday dealings is the best I have ever seen portrayed, yet not explicit in any way. An electrically charged piece of filming. There is something wonderful about good films from the 70s that only really has that same resonance in the 30s.
