  • Yes, women’s rights have come a long way, but still have much further to go. The mental manipulation and suppression of women, termed Gaslight is still going on quietly within societal expectations portrayed in; magazines, TV and net advertisements. The unattainable view of body image portrayed within these media is another aspect of the Gaslight phenomena. Please be aware of man’s slight-of-hand when manipulating a woman’s persona. It is unacceptable and should not be allowed to continue.

  • Some main points in Women’s rights: 1919 – The woman suffrage passed, 1960 – The Food and Drug Administration approves birth control pills, 1972 – The Equal Rights Amendment is passed, 1973 – Roe v. Wade past, 1976 – The marital rape law making it illegal for a husband to rape his wife, 1978 – The Pregnancy Discrimination Act bans employment discrimination against pregnant women.

  • Hello! People! Are you all blind to the fact that at this time women's rights were still coming out from under a rock? Charles Boyer's treatment of Ingrid Bergman stifled her individual thought, independent self expression and held her from having individual free will. The actual term for this is, interestingly, Gas-lighting! Yes, this is a benchmark film. But it speaks volumes of man's suppression of women in the early to mid 19th century. I'm surprised none of you noticed this.

  • I absolutely loved this movie!

  • Angela Lansbury's first film... great movie!
