Charles Perraults Bluebeard gets a feminist gothic makeover in this subversive take on the famous French fairy tale--from the filmmaker behind the cult film, The Love Witch, and for fans of Jane Eyre nJudith is a successful novelist, but shes a little sensitive. Shes from a good family, even if that family favors her more beautiful sister. She loves a drink (or 3) but isnt sure if she loves the handsome doctor who is courting her. She yearns for a romance to yield to but remains a virgin. Judith receives visions from the saints. n nThen Judith meets Gavin, a handsome and charming baron, at a wedding on the Cornish coast. His love transforms her from a plain, lonely girl into a beautiful, glamorous woman overnight. n nAfter a whirlwind honeymoon in Paris, he whisks her away to a Gothic castle in the countryside. But soon her perfect marriage begins to fall apart and she finds herself trapped in a nightmare, as her husbands mysterious nature, and his alternation of charm and violence, become more and more confusing and frightening. And then there are those whispers amongst the staff, unsettling rumors from London, and strange rattlings from the crypt.. n nFrom the visionary filmmaker of The Love Witch, this is a modern gothic feminist take on the classic folktale Bluebeard.n
