Starring Gene Tierney

With her porcelain beauty and a cool sophistication that seemed to conceal turbulent emotional depths, Gene Tierney emerged as one of the most arresting stars of Hollywood’s golden age. Though equally striking in the sparky con-woman comedy RINGS ON HER FINGERS, the brooding gothic melodrama DRAGONWYCK, and the gorgeously atmospheric romantic fantasy THE GHOST AND MRS. MUIR, it was in the realm of noir that she perhaps made her greatest impact, bringing a fascinating, enigmatic ambiguity to classics like LAURA, NIGHT AND THE CITY, and, above all, LEAVE HER TO HEAVEN, in which her elegant poise masks a shocking monstrousness.
