DFLL Review

[Mrs Vindecco]

I found this other day and thought I woud share. Unsurprisingly it doesn't tell us anything new about Dwight and yeah it's contains yet another brief rehash of Dwight's life, but I think it's one of the finest reviews of DFLL. It's honest without being gushing.

I also like the fact it mentions the heiress that promoted Dwight. I always wondered who she was and if she was only interested in his talents on stage. Even back then, I think Dwight was attracting the ladies.

Do you have a link to the review?

I have wondered that too, if her efforts were completely altruistic or if she was hoping to have him for herself. IMHO, I don't think he would have been into that, he was a religious person and he was very much in love with Laura.

Don't forget, Fast Company on TCM Sept. 11!

Whoops! Too busy thinking of naughty ladies after sweet Dwight!

Had Dwight actually met Laura at this point, MM. I can't remember. Even if he hadn't, I doubt he would be someone that would be easily seduced. I get the impression he was quite straight-laced and probably would find a woman throwing herself at him quite vulgar, whether he was attached or not.
