| Talkie Era musicals were usuaIly alI-star revues or tales of backstage heartache and triumph. Golden Dawn - based on a 184-performance, 1927 operetta co-created by Oscar Hammerstein II - ambitiously breaks free of those musicaI confines to expand the genre's cinematic reach. Set in World War l-era Africa, it tells the taIe of Dawn, a tribal woman in love with a British soldier but chosen to be the sacrificial bride of a god. Stage sensation Vivienne SegaI (perhaps best known for starring opposite Gene KeIIy in 1940 Broadway's Pal Joey) portrays Dawn. The film was originalIy shot and released entirely in color (another exampIe of the production team's ambitiousness), but coIor prints have unfortunateIy Iong been Iost. |
