H.M. Pulham, Esq. (1941) – King Vidor Brings John P. Marquand Bestseller to Life

November 14, 2014 By Cliff Aliperti 5 Comments

Robert Young and Hedy Lamarr

Comparing King Vidor’s adaptation of H.M. Pulham, Esq. (1941) to the novel by John P. Marquand, and why both tellings are wonderful. Excellent performances from Robert Young and Hedy Lamarr trickle down throughout the entire cast, most of who are perfect representations of the characters Marquand created on the page. It’s a quiet story that tells a lot in the end.
