If you are an "Anglophile" this movie is for you. Very cute. I seriously thought it was a drama from the mock up but turned out to be a lite comedy with a little bit of a love story as well. Enjoy !!
Who doesn't like to see Errol Flynn in a military uniform !! Great movie about the growth of air war fare during WWII. Great extras with this DVD which are worth the look-see to learn a little bit of what started the experimentation after many losses of planes/pilots. Also a good story line between Flynn and Fred McMurray. Secondary characters were a great addition to the seriousness of the subject matter.
Very good Orsen Wells film. He is a stinker in it and many reviews like to point out how impossible many of the scenes are. As Hitchcock once said, "if you want facts, watch a documentary, if you want to be entertained, watch a movie."
I had no idea what to expect with this movie but I was totally blown away!! This is for a mature audience. I agree with the other reviewer that some of the secondary actors could use a few more acting classes. The son's girlfriend had to be the most annoying of the bunch. As far as the two main characters (Traci Dinwiddie & Necar Zedagan) were both amazing. Stunningly beautiful in their own ways, they brought a lot of emotion to this subject which is very believable for a number of reasons. The love scenes were, passionate and done with a great deal of class and dignity.The one thing to take away from this film is the beauty of the capacity to love someone endlessly, passionately and openly.
Outstanding movie and agree with the other reviewer. What a classic. Had no idea it won for best picture. Acting outstanding and the special feature on St. Thomas More was a great addition to the movie. A must see for High School history students.
Boring, slow and choppy story line !! No where near what I thought it would be. None of the characters are likable. Very little dialog. Just a lot of people staring at each other with sad, lonely, desperate eyes. No resolution at the end of the movie. I get "artsy" in film, but this was just so bad. Numerous love scenes, but nothing other than two individuals kissing. Waste of time.
Period piece about a woman who marries a boring doctor and moves to the country. She is not happy with her life and he is to focused on his practice to notice. She begins having affairs and gets involved with a merchant (who is much smarter than she thinks she is) trying to buy things to fill a very large emotional void. The costumes and scenery are amazing. Music very haunting. There is not a lot of dialog in this movie it is very "artsy." Love scenes not long enough for you to even invest in the characters, of which you won't like any. But a good movie to watch that will hopefully get people to want to crack open some classical literature.
