Did anyone see the 1949 version?


I just watched it, and the 1993 version looks almost the same. The house, the garden, all the visuals were almost exactly the same. Both were very good.

I just watched it today on TCM. :) I liked it very much. I didnt really think it looked to similar too the newer version... the garden was a bit of a dissappointment. Maybe because I love the one in the 1993 version; it was so mysterious and hidden. However, I really loved how they switched to color when in the garden.

We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!

Yes, I did and I absolutely loved it. I was totally surprised by how good it was. I also feel that it is rather different from the 1993 version, and for me the 1949 film is by far the better version.
