The Other Love (1947 André de Toth)

Typical Eric Maria Remarque stuff - couple trying to find love amidst tragic circumstances (the film's best scene is where Barbara Stanwyck realises her room mate has just died) - given slightly sluggish treatment. Neither Niven nor Richard Conte feel quite believable as doctor and racing driver respectively.

Shot by Victor Milner with a stirring score by Miklos Rosza for RKO.
