Gene Tierney and Vincent Price star in an adaptation of Anya Seton's bestselling novel. Excellent fun for fans of Gothic romance and historical fiction.

Gene Tierney is one of the most beautiful women that has ever lived and her eyes are absolutely, positively spellbinding. It is impossible to look into those eyes and not be spellbound. She may be long gone, but she will certainly never be forgotten.
@coretv292 Жыл бұрын
Gene Tierney was a beacon of beauty that shone brighter than any star. Her mesmerizing eyes were like an entrancing spell, captivating all who beheld them. Even though her life has ended, her captivating aura lives on, never to be forgotten. It's no wonder that her beauty is still remembered and cherished to this day.

Mr. Price was amazing. I had the good fortune to meet him in person. Years ago at a small downtown NY art gallery. He and Coral Browne were respected art collectors, and quite knowledgable. Lovely people. A group of us were taking about collecting famous paintings. I'll never forget he said (in that marvelous voice), "Well, God bless anyone who has a cool five million to drop on a Picasso. But my advice is always the same: Have artwork around you that gives you pleasure, and you enjoy. If it appreciates in value over the years, then so much the better. Just - let it be a delight every time you look at it. That to me, is the REAL value!" I have over the years taken his advice. Smart man, Mr. Price. I own some paintings that may or may not be 'worth a lot' down the road. But all of them have a back story, and I smile to remember how I came upon them, and remember as a view them, with delight - why I own them!!

How have I lived 56 years and never seen this film?! It was really neat to see Jessica Tandy and Harry Morgan as their younger selves. Gene Tierney -- how excellent she was! Never mind her loveliness, with the sultry eyes and the slight over-bite that gave her the pouty bottom lip ... she had me feeling happy, scared, sad, melancholy, etc. Glenn Langlan was a sight to behold. Such a handsome hero, as it were. And, I conclude with Vincent Price. I tried to think who could play the part of Nicholas if this film were re-made; I decided that I'm not sure it would be worth trying to replace Mr. Price in the role. He acted the perfect part of a man going insane, drugs or no. His performance made me want to read the book! I have never seen him look so healthy and beautiful and robust. I couldn't blame Miranda for falling in love with him: the charm, the elegance, style. All of this was pure Vincent Price. Movie perfection.

I can’t believe this is the first time I’ve heard of or seen this movie. I’m 67 years old and watched so many old movies on tv as a kid, then on cable channels, video and dvds. Somehow this one got by me. It was spellbinding. A great blend of suspense with strong character roles. I was shocked when he admitted to her what he did in his “room in the tower”! That was the last thing I would’ve ever guessed, especially in a movie at that time period. WOW!!! Great suspense film, held my attention throughout, I can’t wait to watch it again. I’ve enjoyed both actors films, now I can add another to the list. Thanx for the upload 😊

I first read Dragonwyck by Anya Seton in 1966. It was in my mother's stash of books that included The Foxes of Harrow, Tobacco Road, Gone With the Wind, Lady Chatterly's Lover, The Uninvited, and quite a few others. They were stashed in our attic and forbidden to me. We had a pull-down ladder to the attic and I didn't feel the least bit guilty about clambering up there and retrieving the "forbidden fruit". This movie follows the novel in general, but there are so many parts left out. For instance, when Johanna dies, Doctor Turner saves a piece of the poisoned cake, although he's not sure why, and conducts a variety of tests on it. Nicholas's failure to accede to unfavorable (for him) events is downplayed somewhat. His cold control over Miranda through violence alternating with tenderness and his interest in Edgar Allan Poe aren't even mentioned (of course, it WAS filmed in 1946). Nicholas takes pride in racing boats--and his end is by drowning in the Hudson when one of his racing boats catches fire. I wish someone would remake this movie. Audiences are now more agreeable to sitting for movies that are well over two hours long, and there are plot points that are well deserving of highlighting instead of omitting or, worse, glossing over.

Just be glad a movie was made from this novel - Movies based on books will always have to omit certain parts and they do their best in most cases I think but including everything from a book cant be done. Over six hours of Lord of the Rings and people still complained this or that was omitted.

@fueledbylove Nonsense. That movie was marginally based on the book, and bound by the mores of the time it was filmed. If it were made today, it has the potential to be a more involved film.

I read the book that this movie was based on a number of times since I was a teenager. Although the ending was not the way it was written in large part it does follow the book. Nicholas was portrayed as a self-absorbed egomaniac who cared about no one but himself and used people to get what he wanted. Vincent Price pulls this off some of the time but once in awhile he allows you to feel sorry for Nicholas. Other than that I thought he did a great job. He hit the sarcasm just right.

Great classic Vincent Price film and Gene Tierney was so beautiful and talented as well. Always loved how Price could start out in a role seemingly 'normal" and then slowly go mad and sinister with his great facial expression and distinct voice he was famous for. He totally nailed his characters that way and was so believable. Nice to also see Jessica Tandy with her wonderful great acting as well. And the great Anne Revere who was famous for playing mothers and who was an actual descendant of Paul Revere! And of course, Spring Byington who always played mothers as well and who we later found out in life was a Lesbian who was involved off screen in a relationship with Ma Kettle...what a shock that was to find that out. More Hollywood trivia. Thanks for sharing~ also loved the beautiful sets and costumes as well, well done!

Right! The movie would start off "normal" as you say, And 30-45 minutes in, I'm sitting up straight, squinting at the screen, going "uh-oh, something ain't right" and VP would morph into a crazed man. Love that about him!

But when you're watching it, and once you've gone to that place where you forget you're watching it, when the film is working its magic and you're just feeling it, and you've lost the awareness that it's a film you're watching, that's when you know you're witnessing a truly great piece of art. This film is truly a treasure and I handsomely thank the uploader ♥️.

Well, I'm thrilled you love it! That's why I share older movies whenever I can! If you haven't already seen them, I'd recommend "The Uninvited" (1944), "Giant" (1955), "Jezebel" (1938), and "Gaslight" (1944) for films with similar aesthetics or narrative themes. "Laura" (1944) also pairs Price and Tierney, as does "Leave Her to Heaven" (1945), both of which are noirish thrillers. I'd be remiss not to add the excellent "Ghost and Mrs. Muir" which is one of Gene Tierney's best and beloved films, and "The Baron of Arizona" (1950) which stars Vincent Price in a similar role.
