Two more chances to see the very pre-Code MAN'S CASTLE on the big screen MoMA Film — restored to its original length and structure. Today at 6:30 pm, tomorrow at 4:30 pm. Worth sneaking out of work for.

This Bulle Ogier retro coming up at MoMA is about as high-quality as actor retros get: moma.org/calendar/film/…

Here for the second half of our Frank Borzage double feature, MAN’S CASTLE (‘33)! This premiere restoration adds back nearly half an hour of footage removed by the censors in 1938.

I’m overjoyed to see Spencer Tracy and Loretta Young in this first time watch as Borzage intended!

'Thy neck is a tower of ivory. Thy breasts are like clusters of grapes. How fair and how pleasant thou art, for delights.'

In a line of dialogue censored and cut from Borzage's MAN'S CASTLE, Spencer Tracy quotes from the Song of Songs, like Anna does in Dreyer's DAY OF WRATH.

Frank Borzage & Man’s Castle
Through Apr 24
“In Borzage’s cinema, mastery of the intimate gesture..lived on..images emit a language of tenderness, whose secret had seemed lost forever..cosmic & intimate are one.”

'For all their high-mindedness, [Frank] Borzage’s films bypass conventional morality; their faith is in the redemptive, even miraculous, power of love...'
