Producer David O. Selznick turned his attention to Hollywood with this 1937 original classic directed by William A. Wellman. The Academy Awardr-winner* tells the story of hopeful young actress Esther Blodgett (Janet Gaynor), whose career is launched by Norman Maine (Fredric March), a movie star who also wins the actress' heart. Esther becomes leading lady Vicki Lester, but as Norman's career flounders, he sinks into an abyss of alcoholism. Esther chooses to sacrifice her stardom to care for him, but he refuses to let her abandon her dreams. Remade three times in years ahead, this original version has finally undergone a meticulous restoration from its original nitrate Technicolorr camera negatives. The result is a revelation and a definitive presentation of this timeless classic.
