Joan of Lorraine

The main character is Mary Grey, the fictional star actress who portrays Joan.

Other notable actors who appeared in this production were Joseph Wiseman, Romney Brent and Sam Wanamaker.

Instead, it made the story a straightforward account of Joan's life, omitting the fictional acting company altogether.

Anderson's dialogue for the story of Joan was not only retained, but, in collaboration with Andrew Solt, expanded with additional scenes involving historical characters who do not appear in the original play.

For her performance, Ingrid Bergman was nominated for an Academy Award, but lost out to Jane Wyman in Johnny Belinda.
