Daisy Kenyon (1947)
Director: Otto Preminger
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Fascinating melodrama (from the novel by Elizabeth Janeway) which has anguished Crawford torn between the two men in her life, army sergeant Fonda and married lawyer Andrews. She's a fashion designer (cue costume changes); as always with Crawford, though, it's her gaunt, angular face that dominates the screen. She may only have agreed to do the film on condition that Andrews and Fonda were her co-stars, but fine actors though they are, they can't match her pitch of intensity.Author: GM
