Loucuras do Coração

No matter how well Margaret Lockwood acts and how she doubtlessly dominates the film, the character you will remember from this film is Kathleen Byron as her scheming rival. Margaret Lockwood is courted by the ideal French aristocrat, who will not give in in his efforts to marry her. The problem is she is going blind. She does go blind and seeks refuge at a convent, but the mother superior commands her to return to mundane life, she has no choice, but there, in spite of her blindness, the gallant Paul Dupuis is still waiting for her and marries her. He brings her home to his castle in Provence in southern France, where she soon finds herself unwanted och worked against, but she can't see by whom. Naturally a noble family like this must have second thoughts about their son marrying a blind girl, and the plot thickens. Kathleen Byron, intelligent and beautiful, more so than Margaret Lockwood, takes the lead in the intrigues, which go from bad to worse. It's an excellent thriller and very romantic at that, so this is a film you will enjoy seeing again at times, at least once every ten years.
