Leonard took over as director, and the supporting cast and script were changed. Examples show the altered script and photos of several deleted scenes. Also, BITTERSWEET (1940), and why Noel Coward “disowned” the film; THE CHOCOLATE SOLDIER (Nelson, Rise Stevens, 1941); SMILIN’ THROUGH (Jeanette, Gene Raymond, 1941). New introduction by Sharon Rich. 200 pages, color covers are reproduced full-sized inside the book.

Today in J/N History

1944 Nelson writes the first draft of a movie treatment for himself and Jeanette entitled "Timothy Waits for Love." The plot somewhat resembles Mel Gibson's movie "Forever Young" (1992) in which the hero is cryogenically frozen and wakes up years later to be reunited with his lost love.
