are presented with an unreliable governess that
tells a story about a haunted mansion. The novella

remains: do the ghosts exist or is the governess
going wildly insane? The film version, directed by
Jack Clayton is much less ambiguous, but with
evidence of both sides. The Innocents leans more
toward the fact that the ghosts do exist and the
children are possessed, although they might not
realize i...

they think so. This is because, even though they

beautiful, it is not often that the inexperienced
eye would truly realize exactly what makes each
work unique. Some of these factors include the
period in which the work was done, the techniques
used, and the overall emotion that the work
