June Christy is the best evidence I know of the existence of angels. What else but an angel come to earth to grace us could account for her voice? The song is titled "This Time the Dream's on Me": The movie is about rekindling something that used to be, but ended because of--what?--someone not holding up their end, or not being where they should have been. And that someone regrets being undependable, and not having understood the value of what was. And there's the sense of the promise that things can be set right. And maybe they don't end up together. . . .hey, wait. That' -

We don't see his movies so much now as some years ago. Weren't most of his movies at Paramount? Maybe that's why. I'm sure lots of them can be seen on other venues, paid or not.

Another movie, like Frankenstein (1931), that is a victim of its own success. It spawned an entire genre of take-offs and sequels, fun enough to watch in their own right, but which were essentially campy exploitation that robbed the original of due respect for its more sober elements. A fine movie, exciting, well-crafted, and at times moving.
