BRIDE OF MIDNIGHT World Cinema

Based on a screenplay by Luis
Burruel, this is a gothic tale of jealousy
and ambition, focusing on a wealthy
family living in isolation in rural
Galicia at the end of the 19th century.
When a young man comes to visit and
becomes attracted to the beautiful
daughter, dark secrets begin to
surface. Against a backdrop of ancient
trees, the manor house and the cliffs,
the movie takes on the tone of a
classic Hammer film, slowly revealing
the pieces of the puzzle as the
attractive couple are drawn closer to
each other.
