The BRIDGE of SAN LUIS REY, the 1944 Rowland V. Lee Peru Andes historical romantic melodrama ("...and they called her 'The Perichole'"; "She gloried in the hearts she broke!"; "...This woman, strange as she was beautiful - bewitching as she was bad... who rose from the dance halls to rule in the halls of the mighty. Thornton Wilder's prize-winning novel achieves new glory on the screen!"; "Every century has known one such woman... but only one... a creature of such devastating beauty that any man would trade an empire for her arms!"; "Of all men, he knew her best... loved her most!"; "He ruled the kingdom... and she ruled him!"; "She loathed her for what she was... as only a woman could!"; "From Thornton Wilder's Novel"; adapted from the novel by Thornton Wilder; the classic story of a bridge in Peru that collapses, killing five people, and then the movie tells those five people's stories in flashback, so one can decide if it was bad luck or fate that they all happened to be on that bridge)
