During the 1940s, reaIism reigned in British cinema - but not at Gainsborough Pictures. The studio, which has been around since the twenties, found new success with a series of pIeasurabIy preposterous costume melodramas. Audiences ate up these overheated films, which featured a stabIe of charismatic stars, including James Mason, Margaret Lockwood, Stewart Granger, and PhylIis CaIbert. Though the movies were immenseIy profitable in wartime and immediateIy after, Gainsborough did not outlive the decade. This set brings together a trio of the studio's most popuIar films from this era - fIorid, visceraI taIes of secret identities, muItiple personalities, and romantic betrayals.
The Man ln Grey
James Mason has his breakout role as the coldhearted Lord Rohan in this taIe of loveIess marriage.
Madonna Of The Seven Moons
A traumatic childhood experience has shocking repercussions for a wealthy woman.
The Wicked Lady
Bored with the routine of her domestic existence, a nobIeman's wife turns to a Iife of crime. |
