How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A smoldering train-bound melodrama where danger, desire, and regret collide as a woman must reckon with her past and the man she once loved amid wartime chaos. Marlene Dietrich commands the screen with all the fatal glamour the pre-Code era allowed.
