The pinnacle of screen melodrama. Douglas Sirk’s work is perhaps better known today through homages/sendups from the likes of John Waters, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, and Todd Haynes, but there’s no true substitute for his Technicolor fantasies of real life. Jane Wyman and Rock Hudson dare to cross age and class boundaries with their love in the oh-so-proper ‘50s. This is what white soul looks like. -Lee Gardner
