The Member of the Wedding - Twilight Time 1952 Blu ray

Über-producer Stanley Kramer (Judgment at Nuremberg) and sterling director Fred Zinnemann (A Man for All Seasons) bring us The Member of the Wedding (1952), a sensitive film version of Carson McCullers’ Broadway play, adapted from her own novel. Julie Harris – who created the role of yearning adolescent tomboy, Frankie, on the stage – is joined here by fellow original cast members Ethel Waters, as the mother figure Berenice, and Brandon de Wilde, as a mischievous young cousin, John Henry. Cinematography is by the great Hal Mohr (Rancho Notorious) and the extraordinary score – available on this Twilight Time release as an isolated track – is by legendary composer Alex North.
