Synopsis

Reflections in a Golden Eye (1967) is John Huston's simmering psychological drama, free to watch online on iFILM. On a quiet Army base in late-1940s Georgia, military routine hides repressed desire and private rot.

Major Penderton (Marlon Brando) plays the hard officer while concealing his attraction to a young enlisted man and his disgust for a marriage he can no longer feel. His wife Leonora (Elizabeth Taylor) flaunts an affair with the lieutenant colonel next door. A silent voyeur soldier circles the house after dark. Everyone here is predator and prey at once.

Adapted from Carson McCullers' novel, Huston refuses to soften a single taboo — bold, almost scandalous for 1967. Brando and Taylor lay bare two people rotting inside a loveless marriage. Stream Reflections in a Golden Eye online on iFILM.
