Review of The Clock (1945) by David F — 16 May 2008
Modestly budgeted melodrama is a great showcase for Judy Garland and Robert Walker as they spend two days talking about nothing and falling in love. While it meanders a little too much in the middle third of the film, the final sequences - where Time becomes the enemy of the Alice and Joe as they try to get married - are masterful, with the superimposed images of the clock as it ticks away their precious moments together before Joe leaves for the army and his round of service in WWII.
