Description

Emmy and Golden Globe-winner Robert Young (Crossfire, TVs Marcus Welby, M.D.) is a successful but stuffy Boston businessman. The glimmer of sadness in Youngs eyes indicates that his ascension to the top was not without it’s cost – a man who lived his life as he was told to, not as he would have chosen to. In flashbacks, we see how Young considered changing the track his life was on in order to marry Hedy Lamarr (Ziegfeld Girl, Ecstasy). After marrying his wife, however, the man never strays. The story is told by building the entire narrative on the flashback structure (as in Citizen Kane) along with utilizing the Strange Interlude approach of interior monologues heard on the soundtrack. Also stars Oscar-winner Van Helfin (Shane, Airport), Oscar-winner Charles Coburn (Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, The Lady Eve) and Academy Award-nominee Bonita Granville (Now, Voyager, The Glass Key). Directed and written by Academy Award-nominee King Vidor (Northwest Passage, War and Peace).
