Average Rating:
 Rating:  - JENNIFER JONES AND JOSEPH COTTON TRANSCEND AYN RANDThis insanely romantic movie, fueled by Victor Young's repetitive but unforgettable love theme, has some of the same sort of overripe, unintentionally hilarious dialogue that makes "The Fountainhead" such an entertaining howler of a right wing melodrama, but Jones and Cotton, with their uniquely delicate emotional interplay, are an irresistable couple and their authenticity saves and sells the movie. Though couched as a romantic melodrama (with elements borrowed from "Cyrano de Bergerac") ... Read More Rating: - Another Cotton/Jones ClassicJosephy Cotton and Jennifer Jones appeared together, I believe, in either four or five movies. This is probably the least known of their movies together. As I once heard a TV reviewer remark, Cotton brought out the best in Jones, who was twice nominated for the Best Actress Oscar when teamed with Cotton.

The screenplay was written by Ayn Rand. The movie, ... Read More Rating: - FOR THE TRUE ROMANTICS!This was Jones' third major film and she is ethereal and breathtaking! She is starred with Cotten who would be co-starred with her more than any other leading man and they do make a fine team! The film is a 'moody' and 'gothic' piece which is enhanced by the performances of the leads. Particularly refreshing is the fact that Jones' performance holds none of the 'facial contortions' that marred many of her later portrayals. She truly deserved the Oscar nomination that she received for this film ... Read More Rating: - England in HollywoodI have seen this video many times mainly because I absolutely adore Jennifer Jones.She is an awesome beauty and I must be honest, a sexual fantasy of mine.The fact she is playing a Canadian orphan in the film at least explains her accent.The story of an amnesiac who gradually becomes her true self is OK but why oh why does Hollywood insist on producing "twee" versions of "little 'ole England" in California complete with "gargoyles"? Surely English actors playing English characters in England would have been more ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
