stuckincincy Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 (edited) 8:00 PM. A bittersweet romance, seldom shown these days, with excellent performances by Robert Taylor and Vivian Leigh. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0033238/#comment The ability of B&W to set mood, the capability of the director and the cinematographers is well-displayed in this mostly-forgotten flick. The Farewell (Auld Lang Syne) Waltz scene at the Candlelight Club, is a marvelous piece of work... Sorry - we talk about contemporary flicks here, and I know that speaking about old flicks can get out of hand left unchecked...but if you are a fan of the subtleties, the tones that the B&W medium can impart, watch or record this one. I read somewhere, that Robert Taylor thought that it was the best movie he had ever done. Edited November 5, 2008 by stuckincincy
dib Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 I pretty much like anything with Humphrey Bogart in it. Esp. Sahara, and Casablanca
