The Beguiled (1970)
Member Rating:  
The Beguiled is a Freudian mood piece from the team of actor Clint Eastwood and director Don Siegel. Eastwood plays Corp. John McBurney, a wounded Union soldier during the Civil War, who takes refuge in a prim-and-proper Southern girl's school run by Martha Farnsworth (Geraldine Page). Chauvinistic, insensitive and conceited, McBurney takes full advantage of the women by bedding each successively -- and then learns the true meaning of "a woman scorned." ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    Not the typical Eastwood and NOT the typical Civil War story. A Union Soldier stumbles wounded into a Southern school for girls. Then things get hot - and weird. Edgar Allen Poe meets Tennessee Williams is how this was billed when it came out 36 years ago. SO hard to believe as this would raise more than an eyebrow even today. First half hour is fairly innocent - and then it gets ...twisted..and more so until the bitter end. I loved it - would love to own this one because it is so unique of all else he has ever done...especially for his early 70s movies - this one was wayyyyyy out there & would have been quite shocking by 1970 standards.

    I saw this film when it first came out and was thrilled to see it again. It's one of Eastwood's best roles.

    This movie stuck with me for years and I am happy to find it at Blockbuster. Excellent story, timeless subject with a full on dose of payback. Poor guy didn't stand a chance but it had to be worth it!
