The Cabinet of Caligari

When young Jane Lindstorm's (Glynis Johns) car breaks down, she makes her way to a somewhat frightening-looking mansion for help. Once there, however, her problems go from bad worse: Dr. Caligari (Dan O'Herlihy), the owner of the house, begins taking Jane on a slow, torturous decent into her psyche that makes her increasingly uncomfortable. Moreover, she is held in the house against her will, and no one in Caligari's household seems willing to help her escape. (Verleiher-Text)
