| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIf you're a fan of the big band sound (which I'm not) you will probably like this pic much better than I did. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyFeaturing a towering performance from Jimmy Stewart as America's most popular band leader, Anthony Mann's intelligent if also sentimental film is one of the most enjoyable Hollywood biopics. |
| User ReviewAdrian BPersonally, I'm a huge Glenn Miller fan, and James Stewart is probably in my top 3 favourite actors of all-time. So, this film couldn't be any better for me. This was a highly enjoyable film about the life and times of Glenn Miller. The film contains all the popular tunes of the Glenn Miller Orchestra, and James Stewart and June Allyson do a great job. |
| User ReviewSharon Eit gives me those chills on the back of my neck... |
| User ReviewGrant BOne of my favorite biopic films. Very touching, great acting and great music! |
| User ReviewAleshia HGlenn Miller music + James Stewart? Dude! Of course I loved it! |
| User ReviewMorris NThanks to my parents I love most anything Glenn Miller. I thought his portrayal of him in this movie (even tho I didn't know Glenn Miller) made me like him even more. June Allyson is a sweetheart! |
| User ReviewShane WI liked this better than "The Benny Goodman Story" Plus Jimmy Stewart and June Allyson were great in the three movies they did together. |
| User ReviewLaVerne SThis was one of the best movies ever made! |
| User ReviewStacy FIt was awesome!!! I just finished watching it on TV on TCM... |
