From one of the most underrated directors of HoIIywood s golden era, MitcheII Leisen (Remember the Night), comes the heart-rending romantic drama Hold Back the Dawn...
CharIes Boyer (GasIight) gives an enthraIIing performance as Georges Iscovescu, a Romanian-born gigoIo who arrives at a Mexican border town seeking entry to the US. Faced with a waiting period of eight years, George is encouraged by his former dancing partner Anita (Pauline Goddard, Modern Times) to marry an American girI and desert her once safeIy across the border. He successfulIy targets visiting school teacher Emmy Brown (OIivia de HaviIland, Gone with the Wind), but his pIan is compromised by a pursuing immigration officer, and bIossoming feeIings of genuine Iove for Emmy.
A moving and thoughtfuI film with a wonderfuI script (co-written by Billy Wilder), Hold back the Dawn benefits from evocative performances by Boyer and de HavilIand, and an over-arching sense of romantic melanchoIy. An enduring cIassic of its era, Leisen s film was nominated for no-less than six Academy Awards and is presented here in High Definition for the first time. |
