Great classic romance

What happens when the leader of the Irish rebellion meets the daughter of an English nobleman? Well, when it's the passionate Merle Oberon and the ridiculously handsome Brian Aherne, they fall in love. In Beloved Enemy, you'll find a forbidden romance among the turmoil of war, similar to Romeo and Juliet. Just as in all classic romances, you can probably guess what will happen, but if you choose to watch this one, you won't be watching it for the plot twists. You'll be watching it for the eye candy, ladies, or because your girlfriend is forcing you to, gents. It is very fun, though, for voluntary watchers, because it has all the elements of a doomed, classic romance.

As you might suspect, since this is a movie about Irish people, Donald Crisp is one of the supporting characters, adding responsibility and gravity to the Irish cause. A young Jerome Cowan shines as one of the Irish rebels, and David Niven is the "designated friend" of Merle. I'd recommend this one, although it doesn't reach the heights of Duel in the Sun, because sometimes, us ladies just can't get enough dramatic love. And when you get to watch Brian's gorgeous face for ninety minutes, you're in for a great time!

Wissenswertes
Retired film star Eve Southern loaned Samuel Goldwyn a rare Rolls Royce for this film.

Patzer
Despite the fact that the film takes place in the 1916-1922 era, all of Merle Oberon's clothing and hairstyles are strictly in the contemporary 1936 fashion.

Crazy Credits
Opening credits prologue: DUBLIN, 1921

A time of Ireland's bitter struggle for freedom from English rule. . . . .

A time of night raids and ambushes, of guerilla warfare against Britisah military occupation. . . . .

A time of horror and heroism, with men of both sides dying bravely for what they believed was right.

This story is not taken from the pages of history. Rather, it is legend inspired by fact and all characters are fictional.
