The Tierney gesture.

The title (a forgotten star) is a misnomer ;Gene Tierney won't be forgotten as long as "Laura" and "leave her to Heaven " remain classics for many cinebuffs ....

This biopic is based on the star's memories and a voice over makes her speak :"My portrait in "Laura" is more famous than me "The keynote is mystery and Tierney is as distant to the viewer as a star in the sky ; often used as an exotic love interest ,her legend went as far as to write she was born in Shanghai (which is untrue ,of course, but one can blame the doc for overlooking "the Shanghai gesture")

On the other hand ,much time is given over to "Laura" and to my favorite of hers "leave her to Heaven ": her face in the train which fascinates Cornell Wilde , her impassive look on the boat when she lets her disabled young brother-in-law get drowned , her jealousy when she discovers that her husband might prefer her sister which leads her to ruin them all even beyond the grave ,all filmed in glittering colors ,too bad she lost the AA to Joan Crawford's "Mildred Pierce".

Tierney's grandson appears in the doc.
