Movie Reviews

User Review - 8/10 by Lisa CA wonderful, early performance from Vivien Leigh. She is matched beautifully by Charles Laughton. This was an unexpected delight when I first found and viewed it. Try and find this movie and watch two dynamic leads and a very touching story.
User Review - 8/10 by Stella DFine drama with two acting greats bringing out the best in each other. Rex's part is small but Laughton and Leigh are dynamite.
User Review - 8/10 by darryl cleigh in a musical with a cockney accent? you have to see it to believe it! rex harrison is warming up for his great henry higgins as leigh's lover/producer.
User Review - 8/10 by Henry GSome of the most brilliant cuts i've ever seen in a picture. One after another, it never lets you rest. It' s really uncanny how well this thing moves along. A rare straight performance from Laughton, and certainly one of his best.
User Review - 8/10 by Private UMy first V.Leigh movie (outside of GWTW). Very good... very old! So much talent!
User Review - 6/10 by Tracey cpretty interesting and entertaining melodrama set in the show biz world of stage and street performers with Janet Leigh, Chuck Laughton, and Rex Harrison. good stuff.
User Review - 6/10 by Jackson RHas some moments but is ultimately light fare.
User Review - 6/10 by James HMore of a showcase for Laughton than anyone else, but Vivien Leigh is still amazing (it's obvious that she was meant to be a star) and Rex Harrison is fun in one of his early roles. And you get an interesting look at buskers, so there you go.
User Review - 6/10 by Agnes ^This movie at times are very strong and u really feel the full power of vivien but other times during the film even she turns pale.
