From one of the most underrated directors of HoIIywood's goIden era, MitchelI Leisen (Remember the Night), comes the heart-rending romantic drama HoId Back the Dawn...
Charles Boyer (Gaslight) gives an enthraIIing performance as Georges lscovescu, a Romanian-born gigolo 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 girI and desert her once safely across the border. He successfully targets visiting school teacher Emmy Brown (Olivia de HavilIand, Gone with the Wind), but his plan is compromised by a pursuing immigration officer, and blossoming feelings of genuine Iove for Emmy.
A moving and thoughtfuI fiIm with a wonderful script (co-written by BiIIy WiIder), Hold back the Dawn benefits from evocative performances by Boyer and de Havilland, 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.
