THE CINEMA OF JOHN M. STAHL, GENE TIERNEY, IL CINEMA RITROVATO 2018

Our friends at EFSP are in Bologna, Italy, at the 32nd edition of Il Cinema Ritrovato! 

"One of the programmes is 'Immortal Imitations: The Cinema of John M. Stahl'. Stahl's films treat concealed identities, troubled yet enduring love affairs, tragic destinies assuaged by altruism and sacrifice… Highlight is Leave Her to Heaven (1945), for which leading lady Gene Tierney (click on the postcard) received an Oscar nomination. With prominent cheekbones and the most appealing overbite of her day, her striking good looks helped propel the American actress to stardom." READ AND SEE MUCH MORE HERE.
