For this MGM 1947 Studios Year by Year episode, we discuss Cynthia, a gentle family melodrama starring a luminous 15-year-old Elizabeth Taylor as an over-protected teenager, and High Wall, a psychiatric film noir with great roles for Robert Taylor and Herbert Marshall as sweaty noir protagonists at cross purposes. Our Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto segment, meanwhile, features discussion of two radically different films: James Cameron's Terminator 2 and a 4K restoration of Vittorio de Sica's influential early neorealist drama Shoeshine. Realist horrors or horror fantasy, take your pick!
