Written on the Wind (DVD)
Bathed in lurid Technicolor, melodrama maestro Douglas Sirks Written on the Wind is the stylishly debauched tale of a Texas oil magnate brought down by the excesses of his spoiled offspring. Features an all-star quartet that includes Robert Stack as a pistol-packin alcoholic playboy; Lauren Bacall (Key Largo) as his long-suffering wife; Rock Hudson as his earthy best friend; and Dorothy Malone (who won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her performance) as his nymphomaniac sister.
