Hold Back the Dawn is a 1941 American romantic drama film directed by Mitchell Leisen, in which a Romanian gigolo marries an American woman in Mexico in order to gain entry to the United States, but winds up falling in love with her. It stars Charles Boyer, Olivia de Havilland, Paulette Goddard, Victor Francen, Walter Abel, Curt Bois, Rosemary DeCamp, and an uncredited Veronica Lake. The movie was adapted by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder from the 1940 novel by Ketti Frings. It was nominated for Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Actress in a Leading Role (Olivia de Havilland), Best Writing, Screenplay, Best Art Direction-Interior Decoration, Black-and-White, Best Cinematography, Black-and-White, and Best Music, Scoring of a Dramatic Picture. Katherine “Ketti” Hartley, a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright, started her career in writing as an advertising copy editor and novelist before writing her award winning drama, Look Homeward, Angel (1957). Before her Broadway debut with Mr. Sycamore (1942), produced by the Theatre Guild, Frings worked as a copywriter, a publicity agent, a columnist, a radio scriptwriter, and ghostwriter under the name Anita Kilgore. Born Katherine Hartley in Columbus, Ohio, and given “Ketti” as a nickname, she was the daughter of a sales manager and one of three daughters. Like Thomas Wolfe, the author of the novel Look Homeward, Angel, she was of Scottish and English descent and moved from town to town due to her father’s job. By the time she was thirteen, Frings had lived in cities ranging from Brooklyn to Portland, Oregon. Frings’s first novel was Hold Back the Dawn (1940), a romance between a Romanian immigrant and an American woman, and was adapted for the screen a year later by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder.
