Rating:  - The Moon and Sixpence DVD
Really excellent quality! This is a really rare film, not available for rental even. I have looked for years but always read someone else's review stating that "The color version was not included". This DVD has both versions, the color version is the one you want to see. Good story, GAD WHAT A CAD!!! Fun to watch, fun to see a VERY & GORGEOUS Elena Verdugo, best remembered as the housekeeper on the TV series Marcus Welby.
Rating: - Splendid Maugham Adaptation
Somerset Maugham's Anglicized roman-a-clef about Paul Gauguin received happy treatment in this 1942 Albert Lewin version.

Rating:  - Great Movie,pity about the last reel!
As a previous reviewer,A.Andersen,said:where is the missing last reel in color?..when orginally shown this looked terrific on the screen.The build-up has been lost in printing.
Perhaps one day in the future we will discover a better print on DVD showing the full extent of this fine movie,as originally intended.
Rating: - It's Hot & The Colors Are Clear
George Sanders is my favorite old time movie actor. Not only did he slap Anne Baxter's evil Eve in the face in All About Eve with authority, he knew how to put a woman "in her place" (as none would even dare say today) simply by his presence, and did it with regularity, at least in the movies. George Sanders, if only in the characters he played, seemed plainly not to give a damn - on the screen, he anatomizes this rare abandon - with passion, with clarity, never depravity. Even his suicide (rivaling ... Read More
