Joe Dante on PORTRAIT OF JENNIE

Obsessive producer David O. Selznick fussed over this metaphysical celebration of wife Jennifer Jones for years before finally releasing it in 1948 to dismal box office returns. One of the most haunting love stories ever to come from Hollywood, it improves on the poetic Robert Nathan novella it's based on. Beautifully shot and scored, it won an Oscar for its special effects. A unique and spiritual movie.
