A season featuring the Oscar-winning performances of some of Hollywood's greatest stars.
[Starring] Luise Rainer
Also starring Paul Muni
with Walter Connolly, Tilly Losch
The Good Earth was one of the biggest box-office and critical successes of 1937. Based on Pearl S. Buck's monumental best-seller of peasant life in China, it tells the story of the faithful and hard-working O-Lan from the time of her marriage to farmer Wang Lung until her death on her elder son's wedding day.
Viennese-born Luise Rainer made her Hollywood debut in 1935 after stage successes in Vienna, Paris and London. Her film career was short but spectacular, and with only her second film, "The Great Ziegfeld", she won the 1936 Best Actress Award. The following year she became the first star to win that Award twice when she received another Oscar for her performance as O-Lan.
