Mimi [blu-ray]

Description

One of Britain’s most versatile musical artists and a Broadway veteran by the end of the 1920s, in 1935 Gertrude Lawrence starred opposite Hollywood legend Douglas Fairbanks Jnr. in this free adaptation of Murger’s classic book, La Vie de Boheme which also inspired Puccini’s best-loved opera, music from which appears on the film soundtrack. Mimi is featured here as a new High Definition remaster from original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

Mimi, the mistress of a successful middle-aged actor who takes himself too seriously, leaves him to throw in her lot with Rodolphe, a young dramatist, and his equally gifted but equally graceless, procrastinating and penniless companions. She inspires them to produce the works of art which they were previously too lazy to create; but Rodolphe’s triumph is the ultimate cause of her own destruction.
