U.S., 1952
Directed by George Stevens
With Joan Fonataine, Ray Milland, Teresa Wright
Music by Victor Young
Approx. 89 min. DCP.

“Using spatially disorienting compositions and a nonstop score by Victor Young, Stevens sustains the dreamlike quality of the opening sequence through this story of a recovering alcoholic (Ray Milland, recapitulating his Oscar®-winning role in THE LOST WEEKEND) who tries to help a rising actress with a drinking problem (Joan Fontaine)” – The New York Times

Reviews

“As for Mr. Stevens' production and the direction he has given this film, they are as sleek and professionally efficient as any you are going to see around.”
