Audience Member I haven't yet seen the Hollywood remake, so I can't yet compare that 1941 film to this 1938 original put out by Kino Lorber as part of their trio of films starring Ingrid Bergman before she bolted to Hollywood and became an international sensation. Even then, she has the beauty, charisma and talent to steal every scene she's in. Fun, if not essential, viewing, for any fan of the great actress. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Unforgettable; Bergman shows her acting prowess even before Casablanca. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
