The Clock (Minnelli, 1945): Prince Charles Cinema, 6.10pm
This film is on offer at £1 for Prince Charles Cinema members.
Chicago Reader review:
Vincente Minnelli's first non-musical (1945) is a charming and
stylish if somewhat sentimental love story about a soldier (Robert
Walker) on a two-day leave in New York who meets and marries an office
worker (Judy Garland). Filmed on a studio soundstage with enough
expertise to make it seem like a location shoot, the film is appealing
largely for its performances and the innocence it projects. (Similar
qualities can be found, at a half-century remove, in Richard
Linklater's Before Sunrise.) In addition to Walker and Garland, Keenan Wynn and Moyna Macgill are well used.
Jonathan Rosenbaum
