A screen cap from the Criterion Channel.

A screen cap from the Criterion Channel.

William Wellman's NOTHING SACRED (1937) w/ Fredric March and Carole Lombard is now on Criterion Channel.

This is the MoMA restoration from the original Technicolor separations, w/ warm, golden tones that are completely lost in other transfers.

It looks and sounds glorious. #FilmSky

One of my favourite Travis Banton designs for Carole Lombard. The unusual hemline. The wide neckline and unexpected draped blouson effect of the back and sleeves. Genius.

From White Woman (1933).
