I watched two Barbara Stanwyck films this week, both very good:
Remember the Night (1940)
I LOVE the pacing in this one, perfect example of a classic film letting the scenes simmer. I love anything that feels natural, and this film certainly meets that criteria. It’s a redemption story that takes place around Christmas
Ball of Fire (1942)
Here we have Stanwyck paired up with Gary Cooper and his nerdy friends who help him as best as they possibly can. I loved the mix of genres, it is all over the place. The finale is also quite riveting.
