PUNQ

Rated 26 Apr 2021

I've seen the original silent version, Heimkehr (1928), which was a good, but I felt they didn't do much with the climax. Here the build-up actually leads to something, and the road to the climax created all kinds of emotion. Greer Garson was amazing, the atmosphere was very moody. The movie had something deeper than majority of MGM's films coming immediately post-WWII. I found it highly enthralling film. Almost underrated because many focus on negative factors surrounding its creation.
