Movie Reviews of Carmen Jones
Movie Review: Not as great as I was lead to believe
Summary: 3 Stars
I understand that this was a landmark film for the AA community. I get it. And yes, Dandridge is a pretty woman, but I have to be honest and say I wasn't wowed by her performance-or with Harry Belafonte. Pearl Bailey, however, knew how to work the camera. But my main beef with this film is the music. It doesn't fit this backdrop or these characters. I understand it's an adapted Opera-but honestly, these characters look silly to me singing (or lip-synching) these songs. They're singing opera but saying things like "Dat-Dem-De-Knowed" WTF? Sorry. I'm just not that impressed. But given the landmark status this film has acquired, I guess it's still worth a peek.Movie Review: Carmen Jones

An exceptional movie considering the era it was made. An all Black cast and dubbed great voices i.e. Marilyn Horne etc.Movie Review: Carmen Jones on DVD starring Dorothy Dandridge and Harry Belafonte
