The Beguiled

During the American Civil War in 1863, Amy, a 12-year-old student at the Miss Martha Farnsworth Seminary for Young Ladies in rural Mississippi, discovers a seriously wounded Union soldier, John McBurney. He is initially kept locked in the school's music room and kept under watch. He begins to bond with each of the women in the house, including the slave Hallie. The sexually repressed atmosphere of the school becomes filled with jealousy and deceit, and the women begin to turn on one another.
