Now, Voyager

Dir. Irving Rapper

USA 1942 | Black & white | 117 mins | Cert U | Drama | Hollywood Classics

Cast: Bette Davis, Paul Henreid, Claude Rains, Gladys Cooper

Davis plays a frustrated spinster who is brought out of her shell only to embark on a doomed love affair. Particular pleasures include not only the great performances from Davis and Rains and the Oscar-winning score from Max Steiner, but, of course, the immortal line, ‘Oh Jerry, don’t let’s ask for the moon. We have the stars!’ Suffering never looked so good.
