A good movie

I wasnโ€™t really sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a solid cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out. Unfortunately, I saw this movie on the BBC without subtitles and, to be honest, I did struggle to follow everything they said, especially with the southern accents used by the cast. In fact, it took me at least half of the movie to figure out that Clara and Eula ... read more

Ben Quick (Paul Newman) arrives in Frenchman's Bend, Mississippi after being kicked out of another town for allegedly burning a barn for revenge. Will Varner (Orson Welles) owns just about everything in Frenchman's Bend and he hires Ben to work in his store. Will thinks his own son, Jody (Anthony Francoisa), who manages the store, lacks ambition and despairs of him getting his wife, Eula (Lee Remick), pregnant. Will thinks his daughter, Clara (Joanne Woodward), a schoolteacher, will never get married. He decides that Ben Quick might make a good husband for Clara to bring some new blood into the family.

“I wasnโ€™t really sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a solid cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out. Unfortunately, I saw this movie on the BBC without subtitles and, to be honest, I did struggle to follow everything they said, especially with the southern accents used by the cast. In fact, it took me at least half of the movie to figure out that Clara and Eula were not actually sisters but it was actually Jody who was Claraโ€™s brother after all. Anyway, concerning the movie itself, with such a fine cast involved (Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, Orson Welles, Lee Remick, Angela Lansbury), it could have been great but it was just fine, I guess, but not really much more than that. I mean, the concept was maybe not original but it definitely had some potenti” read more

"First viewing - July 4th HBO Max I liked this better when it was called Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Can't fault the cast, it's the story that stumbles its way from start to finish. Course it doesn't help that the main thread of the story is centered on a rich Southern white dude imposing his will on his daughter's body with no regard for her intellect or desires. Despite some good individual scenes, the story never fully comes together in a satisfying way, & the ending had me rolling my eyes so hard"
