The Constant Nymph (1943)
A Korngold fan's delight
I saw this film on television when I was in my early teens but unfortunately, due to legal problems over the screenplay rights, it cannot be shown on television or released to video at this time. I have collected several recordings of Korngold's beautiful score including a moving performance of his Tone Poem "Tomorrow". The film's star, Joan Fontaine, has said this is, along with "Letter From An Unknown Woman" (1948) her favorite among her films. Fortunately the film is safeguarded in the Turner vaults and hopefully they will be able to bring this truly wonderful movie back into the public eye in the near future.
Becky Sharp (1935)
Becky returns in all her Technicolor glory
Good news for fans of this historically important film. Turner Classic Movies plans to air the fully restored version of Becky Sharp in December of this year! If you've never seen the film I urge you to give it a look. Director Mamoulian frames his shots like a great painter on a canvas.
