The Portrait of Jennie is a great movie. I would consider it a classic. Jennifer Jones and Joseph Cotten are superb! Movies that involve time travel are fascinating and this particular movie is very well done. It's a beautiful story.

- a stunning classic
selznick stopped trying to storm the gates of film success with this lyrical and thought-provoking film starring jennifer jones and joseph cotten.

as a screen presence, jones possessed two qualities, one of which was a dewy girlishness that stood her well in this role. no other actress could have portrayed jennie appleton with the light touch she had. cotten is equally well suited to the role of troubled and struggling artist eben adams. together, they are an equally passionate and loving screen team.

- A Portrait of Love!
"Portrait of Jennie" is a fascinating exercise of a most inimitable romance between the mysterious Junoesque like Jennie and struggling artist Eben Adams. Hollywood A-Lister's Joseph Cotten and the beautiful Jennifer Jones provide captivating performances in a tale of an artist and his poetic inspiration.

In a unique cinematic exhibition, the movie, filmed mostly in B&W changes to a green tint during a stormy scene, changing to sepia for an adjacent scene and ending up in full Technicolor as the camera zooms in to the completed "Portrait of Jennie".

Dimitri Tiomkin's celestial musical score is another delightful aspect of this movie. All thru the film you will hear Claude Debussy's Arabesque #1 and other Debussy works.

A most delightful 86 minutes of entertainment.
