Interlude Summary
Director: Douglas Sirk
Genres: Drama, Romance
Rating:
Like many of his best works, filmmaker Douglas_Sirk's Interlude is a remake of an earlier Universal soap opera. In this case, Sirk's source material is the 1939 Irene_Dunne-Charles_Boyer vehicle When_Tomorrow_Comes. Based on a story by (of all people) James_M._Cain, the story concerns the romance between aspiring musician Helen Banning (June_Allyson) and famed symphony conductor Tonio Fischer (Rossano_Brazzi). Alas, Tonio is married, and his bibulous, vindictive wife (Marianne_Cook) isn't about to give him a divorce. Meanwhile, stiff-necked American doctor Morley Dwyer (Keith_Andes) waits patiently for his sweetheart Helen to come to her senses and return to his arms. Opulently location-filmed in Austria, Interlude was remade under the same title in 1968. Hal Erickson, Rovi
