Inspiring true story of Marjorie Lawrence
30 June 2000
Eleanor Parker brings her usual elegance and intensity to the portrayal of Australian Opera Diva, Marjorie Lawrence. Glenn Ford is her supportive, yet human, husband; their love story is not your standard schmaltzy Hollywood fare. If you like opera, you'll enjoy this film as it includes scenes from many great soprano roles - especially Wagnerian, not just Puccini/Verdi as you usually see in movies - although those are there, too.

This is a great 'Sunday afternoon with a cup of tea' film that will make you feel good.
