This is the movie Jim Morrison (lead singer of The Doors) watched on the night he died (July 3, 1971).
This movie was screened on May 31, 2013 at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan, especially to showcase the acting of Robert Mitchum and the way Director Raoul Walsh displayed the influence of Orson Welles with the movie's "crushing angles and looming close-ups." Made after World War II, this movie dramatizes a veteran's return home - after the Spanish-American War - almost fifty years earlier.
One of the most obvious Orson Welles influences on Walsh is the scene when the camera tracks Mitchum and Wright as they ride their buggy through town. This is straight out of Welles' The Magnificent Ambersons.
The Varsoviana (aka varsovienne, varsouvienne) is a slow, graceful dance in 3/ 4 time. It dates from around 1850 and is of Polish origin (Varsova is a form of Warsaw).
This film has a 100% rating based on 11 critic reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.
