The Last Thing Mary Saw
Directed by Edoardo Vitaletti
Southold, New York, 1843: Young Mary, blood trickling from behind the blindfold tied around her eyes, is interrogated about the events surrounding her grandmother’s death. As the story jumps back, we witness Mary, raised in a repressively religious household, finding fleeting happiness in the arms of Eleanor, the home’s maid. Her family, who believe they are seeing, speaking, and acting on God’s behalf, view the girls’ relationship as an abomination, to be dealt with as severely as possible. The couple attempts to carry on in secret, but someone is always watching, or listening, and the wages of perceived sin threaten to become death, with the tension only heightened by the arrival of an enigmatic stranger and the revelation of greater forces at work. A SHUDDER ORIGINAL.
Winter, 1843. A young woman is under investigation following the mysterious death of her family's matriarch. Here, she'll shed new light on the ageless forces behind the tragedy.

Is this film supposed to be in opposition to homophobia and religious zealotry because it certainly doesn't seem like it. Also could it be any more painfully obvious that a man directed this.
The people who didn’t understand this movie were the same type that didn't like The Wind. Or have never picked up a book. This was brilliant.
