Fade in on the ceiling Philip's fantasy of Mildred at a club, where he dances with her, his clubfoot healed.
1934 "On Human Bondage". While I was unimpressed with the film, I was taken with parts, such as Philip's daydreams. He's lying in bed and at first we see to the side footage overlaid on his room of what may be a dream of his having a...

Bette Davis as Mildred, out to dinner with Philip, played by Leslie Howard. He tells her he has ordered champagne in the hope it will make her more friendly.

Bette Davis (1934) "Of Human Bondage". I'm not enthused about the film but Bette Davis is marvelous in it. That face magnetizes the camera.

This movie is torture. I’m anxious and sick and my heart hurts just trying to watch it. I’m even tense-restless to interfere! Turns out I can’t take cruelty or indifference to gentle souled people, even as fiction.
Damn #LeslieHoward’s acting!#OfHumanBondage #BetteDavis #TCMParty
