Of Human Bondage

Of Human Bondage (5-Jul-1946)

Writer: Catherine Turney

From novel: Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maugham

Music by: Erich Wolfgang Korngold

Producer: Henry Blanke

Keywords: Drama

A medical student in Victorian London is infatuated with a low-class waitress who treats him with utter disdain. Poor script yields a mediocre adaptation of Maugham's story, with Paul Henreid too old for his part and Eleanor Parker is likewise not suited to her role. Filmed in 1944 and not released until two years later.
