I found this film strangely moving, even though Jane Wyman was a most unlikely love interest, and RH was gay. I watch it every few years---Wyman's brilliant and RH seems sincere. Wyman's coiled tension! Her eyes all startled and wary wrapped in that perfect face and modestly girdled figure!! Who'da thought!
Great comment. Like you, I watch this every few years and increasingly, I find it's Wyman's outstanding performance that draws me into it. She could portray real vulnerability with those big shining brown eyes. I think Franz Liszt turned out to be her best leading man.
@4Topwood, Franz Liszt? I thought he was a German composer! A quick search brought up nothing---there was an actor named FL? And th this script...those awful, self-admiring children! I'm filled with anger at them every time I see this. And I'm old enough to remember the Howards of this world---the men who saw you as meat.
...everyone has such great posture and appereance...its amazing...

Was this clip from the 'Criterion edition DVD'? This print color values
appear to be off scale. Charming clip form a bygone era of filmmaking!
