Talk:Spellbound (1945 film)

Untitled
I may be wrong, but I remember Salvador Dali coming into the movie in the images the new doctor has in his dreams. And, it is through the analysis of these dreams by Ingrid Bergman's mentor, that the mystery is solved. Anyone remember this correctly? RoseParks

I find it interesting that even though Ingrid Bergman plays an educated professional woman with a pivotal role in the film, her role is NEVER cited as an important part of feminist iconography. Could it be that by some perversity only ugly or unusual-loooking women (e.g.: Bette Davis) can considered feminist icons, and not beautiful women like Ingrid?

I have expanded the plot summary, and accordingly have removed the template about it.

About the note above about Ingrid Bergman's character not being cited in feminist iconography, it's possible that the derisive comments about women that Dr. Brulov repeatedly made would have ruined any chance of her role being cited as an example of a strong woman. This is unfortunate&mdash;Ms. Bergman's character should have been a good example, but it was damaged by unrelated factors.

Copyright status
The film certainly isn't in the "Public Domain" -- the rights are currently owned by Disney/Buena Vista. The Criterion DVD was officially licensed from Disney/Buena Vista, but they then withdrew the license as MGM wanted to include the title in a planned box set (hence the Criterion suddenly went "out of print" and became a collector's item). The MGM box set was shelved when Sony acquired the company. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davepattern (talk • contribs) 09:48, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Which Rochester
I changed Rochester, MN to Rochester, NY. The latter is clearly recognizable on the wall map in the police station scene. Typometer (talk) 03:00, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
