From Kanopy:
This haunting thriller is set in 1921, in a post-war England where many of the bereaved seek solace in spiritualism. Haunted by the death of her fiancé, Florence Cathcart (Rebecca Hall) is committed to debunking supernatural claims. When she is asked to visit a boarding school in the countryside to investigate the alleged sightings of a ghostly young boy, she feels compelled to take the job.
She sets to work, laying traps and gathering scientific evidence. Gradually secrets begin to unravel and the mystery surrounding the ghost appears nothing more than a prank. As Florence is set to leave, however, she experiences a chilling encounter that defies all reason.
From Kanopy you can stream this 1 hour 47 minute English ghost story.
As opposed to many ghost films which are often somewhat clichéd, this film presents a serious drama full of well-known British actors some of whom were:
- Rebecca Hall (Florence Cathcart) played Loretta in “Tales From the Loop”.
- Dominic West (Robert Mallory) was chilling as Noah Solloway in “The Affair”.
- Imelda Staunton (Maud Hill) was unforgettable as Nora in “Nora Drake”.
- Shaun Dooley (Malcom McNair) was Ricky Gillespie in ”Broadchurch”.
- Joseph Mawle (Edward Judd) was Benjen Stark in “Game of Thrones”.
Worthwhile as this year’s Halloween entertainment.
