Rent Beguiled (1970)

During the Civil War a wounded Union soldier is sheltered by the headmistress and students of a girls' academy in the South. As his health returns his desire increases, but can he trust these enemy women not to turn on him? He takes his chances but soon realises that his benefactress can't be trusted... with his love or with his life! His lustful ambition turns quickly against him and the story follows through a series of nerve shattering events, including realistic scenes that are among the boldest, most shocking ever witnessed on film.

Beguiled review by The Lesser Merlin

Love it

This less well-known Eastwood film (made just before Dirty Harry) was a commercial flop but is well-worth seeing. The story is simple: put a manipulative pretty-boy in a brooding community of isolated females and watch the drama (melodrama?) emerge. The unreal plot is produced with gritty realism. No character is excused, and in one way or another, they all get what they deserve.
