LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME (1955)

Special Features: Intro by film historian Foster Hirsch on Oct. 18

The life of singer Ruth Etting gets the full noir treatment. Doris Day gives a powerhouse performance — both dramatically and vocally — as Etting, while James Cagney chews the scenery as the gangster who refuses to let her out of his grasp. The film won the 1956 Academy Award® for Best Writing, Motion Picture Story, and “I’ll Never Stop Loving You” was nominated for Best Original Song.
