The Supernatural finale has always reminded me of the ending of Peter Ibbetson (1935) starring Gary Cooper. From wikipedia:

“Ibbetson is unjustly convicted of murder, sentenced to life in prison, and despairs that he will never see Mary again. In a fight with his guards, he breaks his back and lies unconscious. Mary visits him in his dreams and convinces him that they can continue to live together in one another's dreams, which connect them spiritually. Peter can leave prison to join Mary in sunlit glades and meadows, but only in his slumbers. "...and so, many years went by."

Though the years pass, Peter and Mary remain youthful in their dreams. Mary eventually dies of old age, but she goes to her usual dream rendezvous one last time and speaks to Peter from beyond. Peter, back on his bed in prison, promises to join her now, and dies.”

Propaganda

Ann Harding (Double Harness, When Ladies Meet, The Animal Kingdom, Peter Ibbetson)— ann harding has a quiet, understand elegance to her...she looks like someone you might see in a pre-raphaelite painting

Janet Gaynor (Street Angel, A Star is Born)—i think the only woman to have won an Oscar for *multiple roles in multiple movies all in the same year*—they just did things weird back then and thought she fucked i guess

This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

peter ibbetson kinda floored me... i think it deserves to be in the same conversation as portrait of jennie / the ghost and mrs. muir as a precursor to their explorations of love transcending the physical form

Watching Peter Ibbetson for the second night in a row

A7. Peter Ibbetson (1935)

Uf, a ver como te explico esto sin hacerte spoiler. Trata de 2 niñxs pequeñxs que viven puerta con puerta en Paris en pleno siglo XIX. Aparentemente se llevan a matar pero en el fondo no pueden vivir el uno sin la otra y viceversa. Desgraciadamente, la madre del chico fallece y su tío se lo lleva a Londres a criarlo como un gentleman inglés. Con el tiempo el niño crece y se convierte en arquitecto.

Sin embargo, el joven siente que su vida se encuentra vacía y que nada, ni siquiera las mujeres o la diversión, le satisface. Su piadoso jefe se apiada de él y lo manda de vacaciones a París (de todos los sitios...). Una vez allí, se encuentra con su viaja casa (que mira que es grande París...) y de pronto se acuerda de su compañera de juegos y se pregunta qué habrá sido de ella. A la vuelta de las vacaciones, su jefe le manda inmediatamente a hacer un trabajo en el campo. Y si crees que hasta aquí ha habido muchas casualidades, no sabes lo que te espera...

Con eso llevo como un tercio del metraje; así que supongo que tengo que parar aquí. Sólo puedo decirte que aunque la primera hora de peli trascurra por los cauces habituales de la tragedia romántica, nada te hace presagiar el desenlace de la cinta. En serio, me estoy mordiendo la lengua para no destripar el final. No sé si me encanta o lo detesto pero es tan increíblemente original... en serio tenéis que verla y me decís.

Otro aspecto loquísimo de la cinta es el papel protagonista de Gary Cooper. A ratos se le ve como pez fuera del agua, sin saber si debe parecer duro o sentimental, pero que quieres que te diga, es todo tan loco que funciona, a mí me funciona. Una poco valorada y casi olvidada Ann Harding le da la réplica y está sensacional siendo a veces terrenal y arisca, y a veces etérea y amorosa. En el aspecto técnico, destaca la cinemetografía de Charles Lang que hace posible que la locura final llegue a buen puerto.

Lo dicho, tenéis que verla. Eso sí, preparad la caja de kleenex porque sí, amigxs, esta peli es pa' llorar. 22 de marzo de 2024

as a film about dreams, Peter Ibbetson really goes off! So romantic and surreal! However I found Ann Harding and Gary Cooper somewhat mis-matched - I didn't buy their enduring passion. Kind of wish it had been Sylvia Sidney in this instead as her and Gary Cooper had such good chemistry

#also read today that garbo always wanted to work with gary cooper and this would have been an interesting part for her

Tunes of Glory (Ronald Neame, 1960) Cast: Alec Guinness, John Mills, Dennis Price, Kay Walsh, John Fraser, Susannah York, Gordon Jackson, Duncan Macrae, Percy Herbert, Allan Cuthbertson, Paul Whitsun-Jones, Gerald Harper, Richard Leech, Peter McEnery. Screenplay: James Kennaway, based on his novel. Cinematography: Arthur Ibbetson. Production design: Wilfred Shingleton. Film editing: Anne V. Coates. Music: Malcolm Arnold. Tunes of Glory is a kind of anti-buddy movie, meaning that its chief distinction is that it gives us a chance to see two great actors paired off, though hardly as buddies. Director Ronald Neame originally thought that Alec Guinness would play Col. Barrow, the reserved, by-the-book officer who comes as a replacement for the gregarious, happily boozy Maj. Jock Sinclair at the head of a Highland Regiment sometime just after World War II. Among other things, Barrow had been interned as a POW in a Japanese camp and still suffers from post-traumatic stress. This similarity to the character Guinness had played, and won an Oscar for, in David Lean's The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957), may have caused Guinness to ask for the role of Sinclair instead. I happen to think it was a mistake on his part: Although Guinness is known as a chameleonic actor, able to efface his own personality in his roles, he also carries with him our memories of other performances. Too often in Tunes of Glory, I think, we're distracted by watching an actor act, rather than being caught up in the character he's creating. I was as distracted by the image of Guinness showing through the part of Sinclair as I was by the fake red hair on his head. Mills comes off rather better as Barrow, although the film doesn't give him enough scenes to develop the character's backstory -- his suicide comes as rather too abrupt, I think. Neame noted in an interview that accompanied the film on the Criterion Channel that New Yorker writer Roger Angell once suggested that Tunes of Glory should have been a play in which Guinness and Mills switched roles on alternate nights, the way Laurence Olivier and Anthony Quinn did in a production of Becket on Broadway in 1960-61. Or maybe the point is that the too-talky, rather static Tunes of Glory would have been a better stage play than movie.

First Take Classics: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory - re-enter a world of pure imagination

SYNOPSIS: A poor but hopeful boy seeks one of the five coveted golden tickets that will send him on a tour of Willy Wonka's mysterious chocolate factory.

It's always a great time when you return to the madcap world of Roald Dahl's work - we've covered a lot of his books within the film world, most recently with the musical adaptation of Matilda, but there's one Dahl book that remains beloved, one which this Christmas (should strikes resolve by then), the makers of Paddington will take on with prequel of sorts Wonka. Naturally, Warner wanted to put the original 1971 film back in cinemas, and with National Cinema Day this weekend in England, now felt like the right time.

Mel Stuart's take on the film, even with a heavily changed script from what Dahl was commissioned to write (to a point where the man himself disowned this production), it packs a lot in to just 1 hour 40 minutes, and at times, it's hard to believe that it deals with the entire factory sequences in just 40 minutes. It looks right at home on the big screen these days, with a lovely new 4K remaster showcasing Arthur Ibbetson's cinematography, 35mm grain and all, very well on modern digital equipment, and of course that score from Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley has become iconic. Pure Imagination, The Candy Man... so many iconic songs, and so many cultural moments were born back in 1971.

Onto the performances, and before we go in depth, we have to speak about the late, great Gene Wilder. This was, for many, the first exposure to his comic talent, his ingenuity, his style, and at the time, a taste of what would follow with a fellow director named Mel (Brooks) with Blazing Saddles four years later - he made Wonka his own, and even with Johnny Depp, and very soon Timothee Chalamet playing the character, everybody compares a depiction to this undeniably unique performance that showcases what it take to carry a film of this nature - and you have the perfect foil to Wonka's madcap nature with Peter Ostrum as Charlie, in his first and only performance. Rounding things out is Jack Albertson, Roy Kinnear, Paris Themmen, Julie Dawn Cole, Denise Nickerson and Diana Sowle - this is a real ensemble piece for the whole family, and to this day... boat sequence aside, still a safe U certificate.

THE VERDICT

52 years on from initial release, Wonka still has his charm, and whether you prefer the Wilder/Stuart version, or the 2005 Depp/Burton remake, the story still holds up so incredibly well. It's great to have it back on the big screen, and who knows, maybe another generation will carry this with them - it sold out on National Cinema Day at the local after all.

RATING: 4/5
