"Now, Voyager" (1942)

Bette Davis. Max Steiner, music. Psychology takes a forefront in pictures. I loved this picture. It's one of the few that will get a high rating from me. The music does a fine job of underscoring instead of being so pretentious or concert-like. Interesting story line and Cinderella character development (which I'm partial to). I would enjoy watching it again just to listen to the music; in fact, the DVD among its special features allows for just the music to be listened to--something I would love to do, but don't have time to. Fine picture!
