Leave your thoughts about The Farmer's Daughter.
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonYoung won the Best Actress Oscar for her charming if hardly award-worthy turn (her win is still considered one of the biggest upsets in Oscar history). |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyLoretta Young won the Oscar for Potter's cheerful but naive upward mobility fable about an ambitious farm girl(of Swedish descent) who becomes a congresswoman and wins the man (Joseph Cotten). |
| TIME MagazineJames AgeeThe Farmer's Daughter turns out to be excellent entertainment because Producer Dore Schary and his associates evidently know a good deal about the special kinds of people they are telling about. |
| IONCINEMA.comNicholas BellIt is a hopeful romantic melodrama which hits all the right notes of an optimistic post-WWII America obsessed with its own virtuousness. |
| User ReviewPrivate UOne of THE BEST movies of ALL-TIME! Not only is it hilarious, but the romance is enough for any girl. Who can forget Joseph Cotton's line, "So tell me the story of your life sometime.' and Loretta Young's simple, sweet, "I will." This has been my favorite movie of all-time and I really wish I could get my hands on a copy. |
| User ReviewIce RA very good movie on how much we should know about the people we put into power. |
| User ReviewI'm El Capitano! AVBery, very good! I think this is so cute! A must see for all romantics! |
| User ReviewScott SI watched this again yesterday. I am a fan of Loretta's from way back, and I wanted to see how well this movie has held up. It was a more innocent time, but I actually think its message is still relevant. This was the year GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT won the Best Picture Oscar, and it was about anti-Semitism. This film is subversive as well, plugging women's and immigrants' rights as well as ridiculing political hacks and corruption. It has a message for today! The cast is impressive. Whenever it is noted that Loretta won the Oscar that year over Rosalind Russell in a big upset, her actual performance is rarely discussed. In fact she is perfect in the role, totally believable and not a bit saccharine despite the whimsical storyline; it reminds me of Frances McDormand's Marge in FARGO, for which she also won the Oscar. Cotten is an underappreciated leading man, and he is totally likable here. The great Ethel Barrymore is both wise and war as his mother, and Bickford is classic. And notice the hunky Lex Barker as one of Katie's brothers! AAll in all this film is a real gem, not an epic but a fine piece of a better and more innocent America! |
| User ReviewJoel AI love this movie. it is Young's best film. Totally charming. |
| User ReviewAngelia KShe is really brilliant for me to set a good modal. When I am totally lost, i will watch this movie again. Now Voyager. |
