1. – Thomas E Breen, The River/Le fleuve, France-India-USA, 1951. Among the Hollywood names juggled by the legendary French realisateur Jean Renoir for his final film in English. He also tried for Brando, John Dall, Glenn Ford, Van Heflin, James Mason, Robert Walker, Sam Wannamaker before settling on Breen (one-legged like his character). No amount of Renoir’s waiting forever, like David Lean, for the perfect shots in India could not disguise the fact that Breen was inept.
