The Turning. 2020.

A young governess is hired to look after a young girl but when her problematic brother returns from boarding school, things take a unexpected turn and secrets of the house emerge.

Based on the book The Turn of the Screw by by Henry James, which was a strange read but interesting and more darker, the film was darker...even with the lights off it was still a bit too dark to see what was going on. The old lady in the book and film certainly deserves a slap, the young boy Miles definatly needs discipline but if you read the book you understand why he behaves the way he does. This is not the best take on the book it wasn't masterly made suspenseful but the acting was decent.
