Selznick"; "Featuring the music of Debussy"; about a disillusioned artist who meets a young girl and she disappears and he meets her again, but she is now older, and she keeps aging on each meeting, and he paints her portrait, and then discovers that she was a girl who had died many years previous in a hurricane!

Dramatized with a romantic new star team...

Note that producer David O. Selznick was certain that Ingrid Bergman would be a huge star when he signed her to a contract, having seen her Swedish movies. To play it safe, for her first U.S. movie, he chose to re-make one of her Swedish successes, "Intermezzo", which she had made in 1936 with an all-Swedish cast, in Swedish of course.
