I know it is an old movie, but I like older movies. The days when stars were really stars. a great cast. I would like Hollywood do a remake of LAURA, also REBECCA with Joan Fontaine and Lawrence Olivia also Gaslight with Orson Wells and Ingrid Bergman.

This movie is from 1947 and the color and scenery are fantastic. It tells the tale of a young barmaid's life in medieval England and how she eventually became mistress to the King. She made sacrifices along the way and the ending is as sad as you would ever expect a "bodice~ ripper" story to be. Besides "Bridges of Madison County", this is the only movie I actually broke down and cried over. It's a very involving story, one that sucks you in and won't let you go. It just grabs at your heart. Beautiful, moving saga...
If You like classic movies about England,kings, lords and ladies, this one is for you. First saw it on T.V. about 34 yrs. ago and never forgot it. It's one womans struggle for the man she will always love but can never have, and the lengths she goes to, to try and win his love . The story is great. The clothing and backdrops are beautiful. Just a great movie and am so glad I thought to look on E-bay for it.
I purchased this movie for my granddaughter who had read the book and wanted to see how the movie compared. She really like the show and I was very pleased to find a NEW VHS on ebay for her. I had seen this movie years ago and couldn't remember what it was like. I believe anyone looking for nostalgia would enjoy this 1947 production.
