It could almost be a companion piece to The Haunting. In that the focus on psychological horror rather than violence elevates it far beyond it's own ambitions. No shock needed. Just pure incredibly painful suspense and atmosphere. All held together by a phenomenal performance from Deborah Kerr. The Innocents is another 1960s benchmark for the horror genre. Today's films could learn something from it. Sometimes less is more.

Flora: "We lay my love and I, beneath the weeping willow. But now alone I lie and weep beside the tree. Singing "Oh willow waly" by the tree that weeps with me. Singing "Oh willow waly" till my lover return to me. We lay my love and I beneath the weeping willow. A broken heart have I. Oh willow I die, oh willow I die..."

The children behaved a bit odd. Most of the characters lacked much depth but I still found the acting to be fairly solid. Not scary but a bit creepy. The ending was a bit of a letdown.

Enchantingly creepy cinematography. Like 'The Haunting', this is the kind of horror movie I can just watch, and watch, and be completely satisfied with what is accomplished through composition, lighting and sound, rather than special effects. Also wonderfully effective is the fading between shots. Kerr and the kids are great, and the story is disturbing and ambiguous (but not overly so), and as much about the governess's instability as about the ghosts.
