BackgroundMorning Glory(1933) is the cliched story of a naive and pretentious aspiring actress, with a very literate script, rich dialogue, and superb acting.]This great film noir received no Academy Awards, although it was nominated in seven categories: Best Picture, Best Actress (Barbara Stanwyck with her third nomination and a career total of over 40 films), Best Director (Wilder""s first directorial nomination for only his third film as director), Best Screenplay (co-scriptwriters Chandler and Wilder), Best B/W Cinematography (John Seitz, working ogether with Wilder on the second of four films), Best Sound Recording (Loren Ryder), and Best Scoring of a Dramatic Picture (Miklos Rozsa).In the film""s conclusion, Gutman is willing to sacrifice his own gun-wielding lover Wilmer to the police -- and that parallels Sam Spade""s response to Brigid! Lorre and Greenstreet would go on to star in many films together, most notablyCasablanca (1942)- also with Bogart.His destructiveness caused him to be sent o the Principal""s office, where he was disciplined with community service.He whispers and hisses: "Master, the sun is gone." Hideously and lustfully, Renfield madly begs his steely-eyed master:You will keep your promise when we get to London, won""t you Master? You will see that I get lives, not human lives but small ones, with blood in them? I""ll be loyal to you Master.
