Home Before Dark

I have seen many Jean Simmons' movies, and I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

I saw it as a young teenager on TV in Memphis, Tennessee, and it made quite an impression on me at the time. I haven't seen it since, but I still remember so many images from the movie. Not only was the acting excellent, I felt that I almost knew the characters personally. Jean Simmons was tremendous, as always. I have ordered other movies of hers, and have taped the ones from TV that I could.

The tone of the movie was also an important part of the story. As I recall, it was cold, winter, and filmed in Black and White, which gave it more of an impact. It's just occurred to me that since I saw it in b&w, I don't know if it was made in b&w, or if it was in color, since I was viewing it on a b&w TV. I think the starkness of the b&w made it very effective. I continue to look for it on TV and would LOVE to have a copy of this movie, if it ever becomes available! Donchu
