The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Chapter 2542 Broke up for Three Months.If you love movies, treat yourself by seeing “The Heiress”. This film may not draw the attention of some modern moviegoers but it should. But it’s great drama that dissects and exposes its characters while telling a dense and emotional story. It has a very stagey feel and rightfully so. “The Heiress” is a true motion picture classic and it is crafted by the talents of some of the best filmmakers and performers to ever work in the business. That is definitely a case of being your own worst critic because I thought he was excellent. It’s said that Clift disliked his performance so much that he left the premiere before the film ended. And then we have Montgomery Clift who I think does marvelous work. His well-spoken eloquence and tinge of snobbery is exactly what the role demanded. Ralph Richardson is simply perfect as the arrogant aristocratic father. Olivia de Havilland is nothing short of fabulous and she would go on to win her second Academy Award for her performance. It also takes some pretty heavy subjects and treats them with respect.Īnd then again you have the marvelous performances. The film moves at a wonderful pace and it always keeps its focus. His calculated long takes and his precise attention to detail are just some of the things you’ll notice. The Goetzs have no problem moving the story from stage to screen and Wyler’s directorial fingerprints are everywhere. “The Heiress” is unquestionably talky, but when the script is so fluid and its placed in the hands of such great performers, it’s easy to get lost in it. This three-way conflict makes up the core of this story. Her father thinks Morris is after her inheritance and he certainly doesn’t believe she’s capable of attracting a decent man. But their relationship takes a worse turn when she starts a relationship with a charming young man named Morris (Montgomery Clift). Her shyness and naivety draws her father’s insults and disenchantment and her feelings of self-worth are practically nonexistent. She lives with her wealthy and proper father (Richardson) who does a poor job of hiding his disappointment. The story is set in 19th century New York City and focuses on a plain and reserved young woman (de Havilland) from the upper-class Washington Square neighborhood. Montgomery Clift added another popular face to the production and the wonderful Ralph Richardson, who had taken part in a London stage version, was also cast. He was instrumental in getting studio support and in convincing Augustus and Ruth Goetz to write the script. She first convinced the wonderful William Wyler to direct the film. She went to see the play based on a recommendation and before it was even finished she was making calls. In many ways the film’s star Olivia de Havilland can be thanked for making the movie happen. The result was a highly acclaimed that still garnered critical praise and several Academy Awards. Their familiarity with the material and their mellifluous writing style mixed perfectly with Wyler’s perfectionism. Husband and wife playwrights Augustus and Ruth Goetz brought James’ book to the stage and were later convinced to write the film’s screenplay. But the original story actually came from the the 1880 novel “Washington Square” by Henry James. ![]() That makes sense since it was adapted from the popular 1947 Broadway play. At times William Wyler’s “The Heiress” comes across as an extravagant stage production.
