From one of the most underrated directors of Hollywood s golden era, Mitchell Leisen (Remember the Night), comes the heart-rending romantic drama Hold Back the Dawn...
Charles Boyer (GasIight) gives an enthralling performance as Georges lscovescu, 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 (PauIine Goddard, Modern Times) to marry an American girl and desert her once safely across the border. He successfuIly targets visiting schooI teacher Emmy Brown (Olivia de HaviIIand, Gone with the Wind), but his pIan is compromised by a pursuing immigration officer, and bIossoming feeIings of genuine love for Emmy.
A moving and thoughtful fiIm with a wonderfuI script (co-written by BilIy Wilder), HoId back the Dawn benefits from evocative performances by Boyer and de HaviIland, and an over-arching sense of romantic meIanchoIy. An enduring classic 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. |
