	Titanic (1943 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The film is especially notable for its alleged influence on James Cameron's 1997 blockbuster.
		The 1943 film actually had very good special effects for the time, so much so that it was alleged that some of them were spliced into the 1958 film A Night to Remember.
		Two are of the ship sailing in calm waters during the day (a very noticable goof, since the model used in the 1943 version is very different from the one used in the 1958 one); the other two were brief clips of a flooding walkway in the engine room.

	Higher and Higher, 1943 (Film version) - Lyrics by Lorenz Hart
		Higher and Higher was advertised by RKO Radio as "The Sinatra Show", and small wonder: In his first major film role, Frank Sinatra was easily the film's biggest box-office draw.
		Actually, Frankie was a last minute addition to the film, which began as a traditional adaptation of a popular Broadway musical.
		Thanks to the film's enormous box-office take, everybody was happy with Higher and Higher--except Jack Haley, understandably miffed that his onetime starring role was whittled down to a supporting part to allow more screen time for the estimable Mr.

	Peenemunde - 1943
		In March 1943, British intelligence analysts secretly taped conversations between two German generals that confirmed the Germans were building rockets.
		On the evening of 17/18 August 1943, with the backdrop of a full moon, Bomber Command launched 596 aircraft - 324 Lancasters, 218 Halifaxes, 54 Stirlings -- which dropped nearly 1,800 tons of bombs on Peenemunde; 85 per cent of this tonnage was high-explosive.
		Hitler's concern for V-2 development after July 1943 peaked the interest of Heinrich Himmler, the commander of the SS, who conspired to take control of the rocket program and research activities at Peenemünde as a means to expand his power base.

	THE IRANIAN: Film, Tehran 1943, Darius Kadivar
		The Soviet film industry was showing the first signs of what was to be known as Glasnost in the years to come, with the intention of opening new oppurtunities for co-productions with Western firms.
		By 1943, the Nazi ambitions of world conquest were begining to ebb as much as the morale of the German troops who were forced to retreat from the Eastern Front after their defeat in Stalingrad.
		The author is a film critic and would like to insist that he is not a specialist in Iranian history or espionage and that the subject of this article is to introduce this rare film on one of the major WW II conferences.

		A non-narrative work, it has been identified as a key example of the "trance film," in which a protagonist appears in a dreamlike state, and where the camera conveys his or her subjective focus.
		Symbolic objects, such as a key and a knife, recur throughout the film; events are open-ended and interrupted.
		Through her extensive writings, lectures, and films, Deren became the preeminent voice of avant-garde cinema in the 1940s and the early 1950s.

	DVD Times - Phantom Of The Opera (1943)
		With the advent of sound movies in 1927, Universal immediately wanted to re-make the film as a talkie, but ‘Return Of The Phantom’ was never made and instead the original silent film was dubbed and 40% of the film was re-shot with sound and Technicolor sequences and re-released again in 1930 to still greater success.
		The studio, unsure whether to play the film as a romance or a family tragedy, eventually cut the scenes where the family ties are revealed.
		The film also seems to be confused whether to be a musical, a comedy, a romance or a tragedy.

	Presenting Lily Mars - 1943
		Filming was completed by November 3, 1942, when Judy had a sitting in the MGM portrait studio.
		True "film soundtrack" records were a few years away, and many stars like Judy would record "studio versions" of films from their songs for labels such as Decca Records.
		These versions were sometimes almost identical in their presentation as the versions heard in the films, or they were completely different, Judy was, of course, on of Decca's top stars, and songs from her films were quite popular.

		Indeed, the film’s final segment is so chillingly raw and naturalistic that it looks like Rossellini was actually filming the war whilst it was happening before his eyes.
		Set in a country which is visibly in ruins and still bearing the scars of war, it is a film with a surprising power to engage and move the spectator.
		Few war films convey the awesome tragedy and senseless destructive capability of war as keenly as this film.

	MY FRIEND FLICKA - DVD
		The film an exercise in post-modern viewership for the modern audience, one that offers much of its pleasure in our ability to place it within its own golden-hued context.
		It's not so much a suspension of disbelief, then, as an implementation of culturally mandated belief and a sort of patronizing snarkiness born of sixty years of similarly bland pabulum rendering such entertainments both comfortable, and comfortably moot.
		Shadow detail is fine, though a good deal of that is probably attributable to the practice of shooting night scenes during the daytime, though fls are inarguably pitch.

		No ghost actually turns up at any point of the film, but even knowing that in advance, you'd probably keep expecting one to do so.
		Eeriness sets in pretty much straight away - as soon as we are introduced to a pale, brooding (or at least blank-faced) mute, who is the cleaner on the ship.
		On the other side of the scale, the film's strongpoint is its imaginative use of sound, which tones down the orchestra, cranks up the tension and makes several sequences memorable, including one involving a wildly swinging anchor, one involving the heavy chain of said anchor, as well as a bloody climactic knife-fight.

		With a limited release in late 1942 (and wider release in 1943), the film was a timeless, beloved fl and white work originally based on an unproduced play entitled Everybody Comes to Rick's.

	Douce / 1943 / film review / Claude Autant-Lara / Odette Joyeux
		His best film, Douce, is a magnificent blend of romance, satire and dramatic irony, beautifully filmed, with some enchanting acting performances.
		Although the film is set in the late 19th century, its story of forbidden love between servants and masters from two totally different social strata was relevant to 1940s France, a country that was as divided by class as it was by the war.
		Her portrayal of the love-sick adolescent who who makes a doomed attempt to cross the barriers of class and respectability is totally captivating, giving the film the tragic dimension that makes it a masterpiece.

		He would go on to make a huge number of films in his career, most of them rather minor parts, and he would from time to time score a very fine role, but from this point on his and Judy Garland's careers would be moving in opposite directions.
		In their first film together, Rooney was the big star and Garland the newcomer, but immediately after this film Garland would be catapulted to stardom in a host of great MGM films throughout the 1940s.
		Her next film would be MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS, and it was during this film that people began giving her the drugs that would play such a large role in the rest of her life.

		The film is certainly unique, as it offers not only the lectures of a man named Alexander de Seversky, it offers much of Seversky's lectures narrated over animation showing what is going on.
		The film featured the combined talents of not only Seversky, but heavy supervision by Walt Disney himself, and a director to direct Seversky's lectures, a man named H.C. Potter, who is most known for his efforts with Cary Grant on Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House.
