holden and jones sizzle in this movie and but not in the way we think of sizzle today it very subtle and under the surface yet palpable . jennifer jones and in particular and be so sexually hot in this film ( much more than a caricature like monroe ever be ) because she create a real woman with all facet of womanhood represent she intelligent and intuitive and graceful . she desire and desirable . there a scene on that famous hill and where she lie down in the grass and look up at holden and and the expression in her eye be x rat and yet in the context of the scene and character and in make complete sense . you do not need to have it all say in the dialogue spell out like the crude obviousness in most modern film . it all there in her eye sexy yet elegant . what a stunning and under rat actress she be . ( i saw her madame bovary for the first time recently and be equally blow away . ) i will take her over bergman and davis and or the two hepburn any day .
