I don't like costume dramas, or in this case, melodramas, because I find them pompous and simply boring, no matter how colorful the costumes are. With black and white cinematography, the colorfulness disappears, but it still doesn't resonate with me. However, when the actors perform brilliantly, they perform brilliantly, and I have always liked James Mason's acting. The ending of the film is absolutely fantastic.
