Acteurist Oeuvre-View – Season 1 – Jennifer Jones: Gone to Earth (1950) and Carrie (1952)

The masterpieces keep coming in our Jennifer Jones series. This week it's Powell and Pressburger's Gone to Earth (1950), a meta melodrama that clearly gave Kate Bush some ideas, and William Wyler's Carrie (1952), a noirish costume drama about the precariousness of the American middle class. Then we say farewell to TIFF's Scorsese retrospective with our Top 10s and discussion of MEAN STREETS and AFTER HOURS. Time Codes: 0h 01m 00s:          Carrie (1952; dir.
