achieved. I thought the fading light filament and
dying sound track at the end of the singer's
career very effective; also the opening and close

time to think about almost anything. It was while
doing this that I came across my love for TV. I

directed by Max Ophuls is perfection. This tragedy
of love, which begins in narcissistic flirtation
and passes from romance to passion, to
desperation, is set, ironically, in aristocratic
circles that seem too superficial to take love
tragically. Everything from the writing, casting,
direction, photography and finally to editing is
flawless. It is an example of a film done right,
an example of a director with a vision, and the
choices he makes to execu...
