Viewing Notes

Interesting that Fontaine won an Oscar for this one considering she was nominated and didn’t win for REBECCA the year before. She’s great here (better than Grant honestly, whose performance felt odd in this one) but I felt she was better in REBECCA. Regardless, it’s a treat to see her in two movies back-to-back. She really deserved more of a movie career than she got.
