Makes me yearn for a DVD release of 1936's These Three, the sanitized-yet-excellent first screen version of Hour, also directed by Wyler.
All I know of this movie (The Children's Hour?) are the clips from The Celluloid Closet.
Is it worth seeing?
"I'm GUILTY!!!"
I haven't seen These 3 -- for some reason I've avoided it -- but now, having just screened & written about Children's Hour for Supporting Actress Sundays (nominee: Fay Bainter, I'm all about William Wyler again...
And, ja, it's totally worth seeing.
it's definitely worth seeing yes (and stinky's post is definitely worth reading. I watched it that same day --coincidence! although not really since supp. actress smackdown is coming up)
it's really fun to view it as a tentative toe dipping in the water. and it's not half as homophobic as people make it out to be. it's just scared about itself ... which, I think, is valuable as cultural artifact.
Plus Audrey Hepburn is just gorgeous. She can even make dowdy dark dresses and sensible flats seem chic and sophisticed. And that's a sort of genius that deserves attention!
Stinky Lulu- These Three is a must, especially for Supporting Actress junkies. IMO, there's at least four great SA performances in Three: Catherine Doucet as Lily Mortar, Martha's busybody aunt; Alma Kruger as Mrs. Tilford; and especially Bonita Granville (who actually scored a SA Oscar nod as nasty Mary) and Marcia Mae Jones who, as the fragile, victimized Rosalie gives one of the most amazing performances I've ever seen (the scene wherein Rosalie, blackmailed by Mary, breaks down in hysteria while being questioned by Mrs. Tilford is a killer- "Yes- Yes!! What Mary says is right!!").
