A Double Life (Ciné-Théâtre)
A Double Life
USA 1947 | George Cukor | vostFR | 104' | digital | Cast : Ronald Coman, Signe Hasso, Edmond O’Brien, Shelley Winters
► Best Actor (Colman), Best Score, Oscars 1948
Anthony John is a distinguished actor who becomes so consumed by playing in Othello on stage that it begins to blur the lines between his public persona and private life. This theatre-set film noir explores themes of identity, fame, and the dangerous allure of losing oneself in art.
.
« Cukor knew actors. He drew more great performances from more actors and actresses than perhaps any other filmmaker in history. The film is the culmination of all this stuff: Colman's career, Colman's personality, Cukor's career, Cukor's personality, Shakespeare, screenwriters Gordon & Kanin, acting, directing, characters, etc. -- it all comes together in a sublimely psychological way. It's even frightening, as acting should be. And yet Cukor also makes it entertaining. » (Combustible Celluloid)
