I saw it on Turner Classic Movies a couple of months ago. It has been on several times in the last year, especially when they did their “Films of” months for Vivian Leigh and Robert Taylor.

Even as they review “Waterloo Bridge,” Miss Leigh’s new film release, she is appearing on Broadway with Laurence Olivier in “Romeo and Juliet.” Or if you wish something more contemporary, you can catch one of the last three performances of Hemingway’s “The Fifth Column” over at the Broadhurst, featuring some Lee J. Cobb guy....

I like the 1931 version with Mae Clarke.

View the youtube scene of Waterloo Bridge and the playing Auld Lang Syne during the dance.....about as memorable a close up as any i’ve ever seen.

Also a not successful Rodgers and Hart musical. Miss Leigh was truly lovely in ‘Waterloo Bridge’.
