The Moon and Sixpence (1942)

Loosely inspired from Gauguin's life, the story of Charles Strickland, a middle-aged stockbrocker who abandons his middle-classed life, his family, his duties to start painting, what he has always wanted to do. He is from now on a awful human being, wholly devoted to his ideal: beauty.

Interesting take on the artistic life taken to an ultimate extreme as a family man chucks everything (including his family) simply in order to paint. Loosely modeled on the life of Paul Gauguin, its central focus seems to imply that: if Western life is a life of conventionality, a life in a gilded cage, then Woman is the bait to that trap and should be dealt with accordingly. And so George Sanders (as the lead) spends a lot of screen time drinking in bars and outlining the dangers. Regardless the curious philosophy perhaps Sanders best movie ever.

W. Somerset Maugham is a brilliant writer

It's rather somber stuff, but faithfully executed by Lewin's literary direction.

interesting thought provoking movie. george sanders plays strickland a character you love to hate. he is a cad and reckless but at the same time engaging to watch. no wonder herbert marshall character in the movie hates him and intrigued by him at the same time. i feel for the character of strove. cant place the actor that plays that part but i feel for him. he is completely devoted to his wife and she hates strickland only to later end up leaving strove for strickland. dont know if she fell for him or just wanted to escape her boring dull life. such a shame. ultimately dirk strover was used by his wife and strickland ended up using her. she was nothing to him but an art subject. overrall good drama and worth watching. :)

Lewin's version of Maugham's novel is intelligent, resonant, and extremely well acted by Herbert Marshall (as the author) and George (All About Eve) Sanders as the painter.
