Two films from 1971 in which Clint Eastwood’s cool, seductive persona turns dangerously against him.

In Don Siegel’s feverish Southern Gothic THE BEGUILED, a wounded Union soldier takes refuge in an isolated girls’ school, where desire, jealousy and resentment gather around him with increasingly poisonous force. Then Eastwood makes his directorial debut with PLAY MISTY FOR ME, casting himself as a late-night radio DJ whose casual encounter with an ardent listener develops into a nightmare of obsession and escalating violence.

A double bill of sexual menace, bruised masculinity and tables brutally turned.

Sunday 20 September
THE BEGUILED at 6pm
PLAY MISTY FOR ME at 8.30pm

THE BEGUILED
(1971, USA, Don Siegel)

A wounded Union soldier, played by Clint Eastwood, is taken in by the inhabitants of a secluded Southern girls’ boarding school during the American Civil War. As he recovers under their care, the isolated household begins to shift in tone, with tension, jealousy, and suppressed desire slowly emerging beneath the surface of polite Southern hospitality.

Don Siegel constructs something quietly oppressive, letting the closed environment do most of the work as civility gradually erodes into manipulation and emotional volatility. What starts as a simple act of care becomes increasingly uneasy, with power constantly shifting between caretaker and captive.

Certificate: 15

PLAY MISTY FOR ME
(1971, USA, Clint Eastwood)

A late-night radio DJ in California becomes the target of an increasingly obsessive fan who begins inserting herself into his personal life. What starts as flirtatious contact escalates into stalking, emotional manipulation, and escalating violence that disrupts both his relationships and sense of safety.

Clint Eastwood’s directorial debut leans into a taut psychological thriller structure, using its coastal California setting and radio broadcast framework to build intimacy and unease at the same time. The film steadily tightens its focus as admiration curdles into fixation, turning everyday encounters into sources of threat.

Certificate: 15
