I don't know/don't remember this complete horror movie aka Obsession, directed by Rusty Lemorande ("Yentl"). Seems very interesting, at least the plot and setting. Famous 1898 ghost story by Henry James, though this is (mostly or always ?) set in the 1960s. There are also a lot of other and probably better "Turn of the Screw" movies (and a later maybe more famous opera by Britten) but I don't know of any with sailor suits, though some interesting historical clothing and top hats (other entries like a BBC version coming soon).

(rating 4 as well).

Rating 4 for now, but I have to check this again later when I have more time. However, I assume few good scenes.
