UCLA Student Film, Preserved by the UCLA Film and Television Archive. A modernized telling of Charlotte Perkins-Gillman's short story "The Yellow Wallpaper." As a writer forced to bedrest after the birth of her son dwells in a summer home, she begins to see a woman creeping through the wallpaper of the baby's room, descending into madness.
The Yellow Wallpaper (Motion Picture) is an "Origins Myth"... rather than a direct adaptation of the famous Charlotte Perkins Gilman story. Drawing from the original short story and a number of Gilmans' other gothic works (The Giant Wisteria, The Unwatched Door, etc.), The Yellow Wallpaper is an original narrative of events that unfold around the actual writing of "The Yellow Wallpaper" short story. After a devastating fire, Charlotte and John rent a countryside house and attempt to start life over, though Charlotte, upon seeing visions of her deceased daughter, retreats to the house's attic and pulls away from her husband and sister.
