The Woman in White

1917 · 68 min Drama
5.5 / 10 · TMDB

The lead Florence La Badie plays dual roles. Clever editing is used for the scene where her two characters meet. La Badie, however, does appear twice within a scene via superimposition, but that's in a flashback-within-a-mirror scene. There are a couple such scenes where La Badie's reflection in the mirror reflects her reflective melancholy mood.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its narrative by contrasting two female destinies and relying on superimposition to visually merge them. It explores the theme of duality through a lens of reflective melancholy, where the mirror serves as a portal to the past.

What lingers after viewing is a haunting sense of quiet suspense, as if a ghostly presence remains within the frame. The clever editing for its time creates a poignant, layered experience. — MovieFinder Editorial

By dim lamplight, in solitude, to fully absorb each mirrored scene and its melancholy mood.
