Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 8/10 by Emanuel LevyInfused with Freudian psychology, which was popular at the time, this Oscar-winning amnesia melodrama is very well acted by James Mason as the Svengali-like figure and Ann Todd as his pianist protege.
Monthly Film Bulletin - 7/10 by MFB CriticsThe pity is that all this fine work should have been given to what is only, after all is said, another rather obvious story of luxury and the romantic yearnings of the poor little rich girl.
User Review - 10/10 by Michelle HI loved this film. The music was wonderful & the storyline gripping. However because it was on at 12am I managed to fall asleep 10mins befre the end so I need to buy it now to know how it ends!
User Review - 10/10 by CJ Cgreat film! james mason was a amazing actor
User Review - 10/10 by michael cA dark brooding James Mason imbues The Seventh Veil with tons of dramatic tension. Mason is the guardian for a gifted pianist. When she begins to form attachments that threaten her art, Mason is ruthless. Eventually, she breaks away from Mason, but she suffers a nervous breakdown. Her psychiatrist analyzes her and assembles a small group of her closest friends and lovers. When the shrink asks her to select the one with whom she wishes to maintain a relationship - her seventh veil falls away revealing a shocking reality. This film electrified audiences in the immediate postwar period. It is the second most popular film in the history of Great Britain surpassed only by Gone With the Wind. This film established Mason as the top box office idol in the world, a status he maintained for years that permitted him to move into Hollywood where he had his pick of character roles for the rest of his life.
User Review - 10/10 by Dave JFriday, February 11, 2011 (1945) The Seventh Veil PSYOLOGICAL DRAMA One of my favorite films from Britian starring James Mason as wealthy music relative Nicolas adopting a young Francesca (Ann Todd) after her parents were killed accidently on an automobile accident then suffering a major breakdown which is when Herbert Lom as Dr. Larson as the psychiatrist come to the picture revaluating her life, step by step! Film has somewhat of a gothic atmosphere with excellent narration! 4 out of 4
User Review - 8/10 by Mike MTakes elements from American, European and specifically British culture (swing and jazz in the first instance; psychoanalysis in the second; stiff upper lips from the third), and juggles with them in a most entertaining and watchable manner. Use of music is particularly effective.
User Review - 8/10 by Rosetta Gone of the greatest nasty bastard charitors ever!
User Review - 8/10 by Kayleigh GAmazing black-and-white cinematography and use of classical music in this Oscar-winning Freudian psychodrama. Excellent acting from Todd, Lom, and, of course, Mason. Unfortunately, it doesn't stand up to repeat viewings very well, and the ending is horrifically dated.
User Review - 8/10 by Laura NLovely old movie, very worth seeing despite its flaws. Great music and excellent characters keep you hooked.
