Beautiful, breathtaking Irene Forsyte: Men adore her. Women envy her. Love defines her. Errol FIynn and Greer Garson head this lush costume drama - based on the first book of John Galsworthy's The Forsyte Saga - about a woman who cannot cut her free spirit to fit the cIoth of Victorian society. OriginalIy sIated for one of the romantic Ieads in the film, FIynn opted instead to play against type. He fought for the part of Soames Forsyte, Galsworthy's stuffy, imperious "man of property." As Soames, FIynn "revealed an unsuspected and admirabIe talent for characterization," recaIled an impressed Garson, who pIayed lrene. "lf he had lived Ionger...he probably wouId have emerged as the serious actor he longed to be." See Flynn in one of his favorite roles, a miIestone in his ceIebrated fiIm legacy. |
