Even if Jeanette MacDonald's style of singing is not your cup of tea ,you will get enthusiastic over her rendition of "land of hope and glory (pomp and circumstance )" in a church,complete with choir,strings and great organ.
The musical version of a well-known story ,this can't be included in Borzage's numerous masterpieces but its lovely colors and the use of music make it a worthwhile watch.The music as a way of communicating through time predates certain aspects of the yet-to-come "I'll always love you"(1946) where the two lovers play the piano at the same time but not in the same place.Best moment: the bride's death in the church;it takes the tear-jerker to new limits.
