Cass Timberlane (1947)
Cass Timberlane is one of the only movies in which I don’t detest Spencer Tracy. In fact, I actually like him in this film. He’s a respectable judge who falls in love with the beautiful yet low-class Lana Turner. In a particularly touching scene, Lana miscarries their child, and Spence is tasked with telling her. He holds her hand and speaks tenderly, an emotion he rarely showed in his performances.
As you might expect, since Spence is older, cultured, and moral, and his bride is not, they have marital problems. Spence is frequently embarrassed by Lana’s ignorance and free-spiritedness, and Lana is often bored by his stodginess. Before long, a younger man, Zachary Scott, catches her eye. But, in order to find out how this well-done drama turns out, you’ll have to rent it. And since it’s one of the only Spencer Tracy movies I like, I recommend that you do.
