The Better Half
The Better Half is loosely based on the classic melodrama Gaslight. It delves into the claustrophobia of marriage and the maddening privacy of domestic space. The performers tack between unfolding plots – one within Gaslight, another lodged in a contemporary marriage, and eventually a number of others drawn from the Bourne Identity, Scenes from a Marriage and other film classics.
