| | Worth its Three Oscars | 1fatts 04/13/2009 | It would be hard to overstate the importance of this film, not simply as a Hollywood triumph: Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor -- but as an intelligent, sensitive portrayal of the America the GIs returned to when WW2 was over.
Our protagonists, every one of them, are imperfect, each of them made both better and more fragile by what they had seen and what they had done. The struggle to rebuild lives and to come to grips with had been left behind never to be found again, is moving and. finally, compellng and believable. The complexity of Fredrick March's character is wonderful: deep nobility and vulnerability co-existing in what is ultimately a real human being.
A trreasure. |

| | Battle of the Giants | 1fatts 06/16/2009 | The story is that when this movie was being shot, actors on the lot would find their way to the set to just hang out and watch the battle of the giants: Spencer Tracy and Fredric March. It was a good script; no one could direct courtroom like Stanley Kramer; nice casting; great set: but it is, in the end, March and Tracy eating the scenery and creating character.
Other good things deserve to be said about this movie, but it's watching the two actors of their generation pull out the stops that overshadows everything else. |
