grblover Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I was lucky enough to purchase this movie this weekend from a friend on the net. It was a bad copy but I have been wanting to see this original version of Holiday with Ann Harding and Mary Astor forever. It was good. Ann and Mary Astor were wonderful. The actor who played Johnny Case was awful. Edward Eve. Horton was in the same role as the remake. Hedda Hopper played his wife, she was awful. I liked the actress who played this role in Kate version. There were no acrobatics between Linda and Johnny in the original which I missed. The ending was a bit diff. Just showed Linda leaving in a car to catch Johnny's ship. The remake explored EEH and his wife more too. I am glad I was able to see it. Wish TCM would get it.
