MISS SADIE THOMPSON
in 3-D

U.S., 1953
Directed by Curtis Bernhardt
Starring Rita Hayworth, José Ferrer, Aldo Ray
Approx. 91 min. 3-D DCP restoration courtesy Sony Pictures.


“Rita Hayworth turns it on... IN 3-D!” Rita’s good-time gal Sadie is stuck on a South Seas island for a week between ships, to the delight of fun-loving sergeant Aldo Ray and disapproval of do-gooder José Ferrer. Slightly-scrubbed third version of Maugham’s racy Rain, though Rita’s shimmy through a crowd of sweaty G.I.’s still had it banned in some places.
