Happy Birthday, Dirk Bogarde

TCM celebrated Dirk Bogarde’s birthday today.


I watched a showing of Libel from 1959.

A pretty unremarkable film with a not-altogether believable plot, but no matter.

The cinematographer,

Robert Krasker


dispayed brief glimpses of some delicious James Wong Howe-ness in the handful of street scenes that made it well worth my time on a rainy Easter Monday.
