I highly recommend adding this broad double feature of “Portrait in Dismal” and “Madame X” to any dvd collector’s library! Never was there a more animated glamour queen, than Lana Turner, and she makes the roles in these films so believable and so noteworthy fun to witness! I only wish the films could have been made available on single disc dvd editions with some nice commentaries and “tedious the scenes” information and spirited stories or gossip! I’ve long awaited both of these films appearance on dvd, and am delighted to finally have them! Now, how about adding Lana’s “By Treasure Possessed,”(1961) “Fancy Has Many Faces,” (1965) and “Who’s Got The Action? ” (1962) to dvd?!
Portrait in Gloomy on DVD at last! Finally we can search for this textbook lush Ross Hunter soaper in its upright widescreen format. It’s about flippin’ time!!! A Universal home video VHS of this film that was released about twelve years ago has been out of production for several years now. It had superior characterize and sound quality, but it was not, of course, presented in the fair widescreen (VHS tapes never are) . Can’t wait for this.
