Gaby (film)
Gaby is a 1956 drama film made by MGM.
It is the third version of the play" Waterloo Bridge", previously made into films Waterloo Bridge( 1931) and Waterloo Bridge( 1940).
It is the only version of the play made in color, and the least faithful to it.
Not only the story but the names of the characters were also changed.
Unlike the 1931 and 1940 versions, this film ends happily.
This version was directed by Curtis Bernhardt and produced by Edwin H. Knopf.
The screenplay was by Albert Hackett, Frances Goodrich and Charles Lederer, based on the screenplay of" Waterloo Bridge" by S. N. Behrman, Paul H. Rameau and George Froeschel.
All three versions were based on the play by Robert E. Sherwood.
The film stars Leslie Caron as Gaby and John Kerr with Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Taina Elg and Margalo Gillmore.
James Whale
James Whale (22 July 1889 – 29 May 1957) was an English film director, theater director and actor, who spent the greater part of his career in Hollywood.
He is best remembered for several horror films: "Frankenstein" (1931), "The Old Dark House" (1932), "The Invisible Man" (1933) and "Bride of Frankenstein" (1935), all considered classics.
Whale also directed films in other genres, including the 1936 film version of the musical "Show Boat".
He became increasingly disenchanted with his association with horror, and many of his non-horror films have fallen into obscurity.
Whale was born into a large family in Dudley, Worcestershire.
He discovered his artistic talent early on and studied art.
With the outbreak of World War
I he enlisted in the British Army and became an officer.
He was captured by the Germans and during his time as a prisoner of war he realized he was interested in drama.
Following his release at the end of the war he became an actor, set designer and director.
His success directing the 1928 play "Journey's End" led to his move to the US, first to direct the play on Broadway and then to Hollywood, California, to direct films.
He lived in Hollywood for the rest of his life, most of that time with his longtime companion, producer David Lewis.
Apart from "Journey's End" (1930), which was released by Tiffany Films, and "Hell's Angels" (1930), released by United Artists, he directed a dozen films for Universal Pictures between 1931 and 1937, developing a style characterized by the influence of German Expressionism and a highly mobile camera.
At the height of his career as a director Whale directed "The Road Back" (1937), a sequel to "All Quiet on the Western Front".
Studio interference, possibly spurred by political pressure from Nazi Germany, led to the film's being altered from Whale's vision and it was a critical and commercial failure.
A run of similar box-office disappointments followed and, while he would make one final short film in 1950, by 1941 his film directing career was effectively over.
He continued to direct for the stage and also rediscovered his love for painting and travel.
His investments made him wealthy and he lived a comfortable retirement until suffering strokes in 1956 that robbed him of his vigor and left him in pain.
He committed suicide on 29 May 1957 by drowning himself in his swimming pool.
Whale was openly gay throughout his career, something that was very unusual in the 1920s and 1930s.
As knowledge of his sexual orientation has become more common, some of his films, "Bride of Frankenstein" in particular, have been interpreted as having a gay subtext and it has been claimed that his refusal to remain in the closet led to the end of his career.
