Marnie 1964 Watch Full Movie

Marnie: A Compelling Drama Unveiled

Margaret “Marnie” Edgar, posing under the identity Marion Holland, flees with nearly $10,000 she stole from the company safe of her employer, Sidney Strutt, the head of a tax consulting company, whom she had charmed into hiring her without references.

The Escape and New Identity

Mark Rutland, a wealthy widower who owns a publishing company in Philadelphia, meets with Strutt on business; he learns about the theft and recalls Marnie from a previous visit. Marnie travels to Virginia, where she stables a horse named Forio. She then visits her invalid mother, Bernice, whom she supports financially, in Baltimore. Marnie suffers from recurring nightmares and has an intense aversion to the color red, which triggers her hysteria.

The Deception Unraveled

Some months later, Marnie, posing as Mary Taylor, applies for a job at Mark’s company. Mark hires her after recognizing her, cryptically telling his co-worker why he is accepting an applicant without references that he is an “interested spectator.” While working weekend overtime with Mark, Marnie has a panic attack during a thunderstorm. Mark comforts, then kisses her. They begin dating.

A Series of Unfortunate Events

Soon afterwards, Marnie steals money from Mark’s company and flees again. Mark tracks her to the stable where she keeps Forio. He blackmails her into marrying him, much to the chagrin of Lil, the sister of Mark’s late wife Estelle, who is in love with him. Lil grows suspicious when she discovers Mark has spent a considerable sum since marrying Marnie.

On their honeymoon cruise, Marnie resists Mark’s desire for physical intimacy, revealing that she finds sex repellent. Mark initially respects her wishes, and tries to woo her, but after a few nights, they quarrel over Marnie’s aloofness, and it is implied that he rapes her offscreen when he persists and she freezes without consent.

The Truth Unveiled

After overhearing Marnie on a phone call, Lil tips off Mark that Marnie’s mother is not dead, as Marnie claimed. Mark hires a private detective to investigate. Meanwhile, Lil overhears Mark telling Marnie he has “paid off Strutt” on her behalf. Lil mischievously invites Strutt and his wife to a party at the Rutland mansion. Strutt recognizes Marnie, but Mark pressures him into doing nothing. When Marnie later admits to additional robberies, Mark works to reimburse her victims to drop charges.

A Confrontation and Redemption

Mark takes Marnie to Baltimore to confront her mother and uncover the truth about Marnie’s past. They arrive in a thunderstorm. As it is revealed that Bernice was a prostitute, Marnie’s long-suppressed memories resurface: when she was a small child, one of Bernice’s clients tried to calm a frightened Marnie during a thunderstorm.

Understanding the reason behind her behavior, Marnie asks for Mark’s help. They leave holding each other closely.
