      Rembrandt (UK) | (85 min; 1936; b/w; English)
Director: Alexander Korda
With Charles Laughton, Gertrude Lawrence, Elsa Lanchester
NBR Award for Top Foreign Films, National Board of Review, USA 1936
A luminous biopic of the legendary Flemish painter. Alexander Korda considered this to be his finest film. A subtle, touching performance from Laughton as the ageing painter coming to terms with both the death of his beloved Saskia (Lanchester) and an increasing hostility to his work.
