At a recent docent meeting we had a special guest speaker lecture about this wonderful treasure in Norco. Of course I missed this meeting, darn! Will have to watch this movie again soon.

Their Own Desire is not only a really good film, it's also a very good example of how sound engineering had improved during a very brief but hectic period. MGM's house sound engineer was Douglas Shearer, Norma's brother. <br /><br />The frightfully classy dancing scene also shows how fluid an early talkie could be. MGM showed how to deal with new technology better than most studios at the time.Jonas Nordinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06065342609209811314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155853741712764167.post-22434245761897584802010-04-07T12:41:15.350-04:002010-04-07T12:41:15.350-04:00Love this movie!
