Review of Adventure

Adventure (1945)
10/10
A terrific movie too infrequently shown on TV

I, also, saw this movie when I was very young; maybe aged 9. Thomas Mitchell (Mudge) thinking (or should I say, knowing) he saw his soul leave him, is one of the things I most remember. I didn't know what "a soul" looked like, then, and still don't. But that really fascinated me.

As one commenter already mentioned, one of the most dramatic, audience-involved moments is when Clark Gable performs a desperate CPR on his non-breathing just-born child.

I think I grew a crush on Greer Garson through this film. She is beautiful in it.

I have to remember to look for this film on the video racks or on the TV schedule.

A truly great film!
