THE FILM BUFFET- A Feast for Your Eyes
Sunday November 11, 2007 at 2:00pm
Innis Town Hall-University of Toronto
2 Sussex Avenue (At St. George Street)
Toronto, Ontario Get Directions
Toronto Film Society presents part 2 of 7 in our Sunday afternoon at the Movies. There is a companion series on Monday evenings.
We are presenting 2 unique and rare looks at the First World War on this day of Remembrance.
BROKEN LULLABY 1932 dir. Ernst Lubitsch w. Lional Barrymore, Nancy Carroll, ZaSu Pitts
In a haunting depiction of the moral after-effects of war, this atypical Lubitsch film deserves the same standing of the more famous All Quiet on the Western Front. A young French soldier is overcome by guilt when he kills a single German in battle near the end of the war. In his search for forgiveness he abandons his faith in God and falls in love with the dead man's financee. Barrymore is at the top of his form as the dead soldier's father. This extremely rare film is well shot and understated.
NURSE EDITH CAVELL 1939 dir. Herbert Wilcox w. Anna Neagle, Edna May Oliver, ZaSu Pitts
This finely made Britsh drama of the famous WW1 nurse and her work to help the Brussels underground aiding escaping Allied POWs. Her name lives on as one of the great woman heros of the century and you can find streets named after her in every city of the Commonweath including Toronto.
Free film notes with programme.
