Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 6/10 by Emanuel LevySusan Hayward received the first of her five Best Actress nominations for this melodrama (woman's picture) in which she plays a fallen woman.
User Review - 10/10 by Film FFor the Susan Hayward Fan in all of us......!!!
User Review - 8/10 by Christopher BI hadn't expected a tale with such poignancy, what a pleasant surprise. If you are familiar with the film "A Star is Born", you know the basic premise of this one. Only this is the one which might help those around such a lush understand the perceived anxieties which make the bottle so appealing. Average cinematography & audio, exceptional script, acting, & editing. A pleasure to watch Albert in yet another role, though he was a bit typecast for a few years.
User Review - 6/10 by Kerr LSusan Hayward is quite good in this melodrama bout a would be nightclub singer who gives up her career to we a breakout radio star. Hayward has many trials and tribulations, mainly the consequences of alcoholism, but her performance is enough to carry the film. Eddie Albert is also quite good in a smarmy supporting role.
User Review - 6/10 by Greg WSusan Hayward received the first of her five Best Actress nominations for this melodrama (woman's picture) in which she plays a fallen woman.
User Review - 6/10 by Sarah PI thought Susan Hayward was excellent in this drama.
User Review - 6/10 by Ice RSusan always plays a great drunk! Love the fight scene with Martha.
User Review - 6/10 by Jack YDramatic film dealing with alcoholism, as Hayward hits rock-bottom before she realizes how lucky she is. Not all the old films had easily won happy endings.
User Review - 6/10 by Vicki WI picked this up from the video store based on its awesome name alone. I enjoyed it, too, because I was in a real trashy-pulp-movie mood. A woman gives up her singing career to support her musician husband and have a kid. Then her husband gets famous and is always away with adoring female fans. They get a big house and a maid, she becomes an alcoholic. They fight everytime he happens to come home, the kid gets really sick, the husband leaves her, she kidnaps her child, nearly kills them both in a fire, and it's not until the end, where she's horribly disfigured from the fire that her husband comes back to her and they're in love again. There's a moral in this movie we can all benefit from.
