a trip to the nyff : Leave Her to Heaven(directed by John Stahl)
The film itself is a wonderful melodramatic noir about obsession starring Gene Tierney and the best color pallet of any film I have ever seen. I feel pretty confident about my opinions on this one - it isn't often you have video proof of Martin Scorsese reconfirming your beliefs about a film : enjoy!

First, because it is an amazing film, second because Martin Scorsese would be introducing it and third (also mainly) it was going to be presented in restored Technicolor!
