Jamaica Inn
He ruled Jamaica Inn...citadel of sin on the moors, curse-ridden, shunned, reviled. Enough sensations for a dozen pictures. Laughton at his most magnificent.

As she becomes entangled in their crimes, Mary must fight to survive and uncover the truth behind the terror that haunts the moors.
