Classic Film/Old Movie

Question
I once saw an old movie on TV, was probably from the 1940's, a romantic film involving time travel.  The actress had dark hair, and was someone like Ann Blyth or Jennifer Jones (not Portrait of Jenny)
thank you

Answer
Hi Judy,

I'm pretty sure the film you're looking for ( since you mentioned Ann Blyth ), is one of My all-time favorites, the 1951 20th Century Fox production, "I'll Never Forget You", starring Tyrone Power. Ann Blyth and Michael Rennie.

As I recall, it started in black and white, and then when Tyrone Power was sent back in time to the 18th century, the film switched to color.

You can find a synopsis of the whole story (with a few errors here and there) at:   http://www.tcm.com:80/tcmdb/title.jsp?stid=78984
(Click on : View Full Synopsis.)

It IS available on DVD, but only in a  boxed collection of Tyrone Power films.  ( see ;  amazon.com)

Sincerely,
