Movie Reviews of Dodsworth

Movie Review: TRUE ADULT MOVIE
Summary: 5 Stars

I was at first reluctant to view this film when it aired on TV. Mostly because of it's age. I percieved that it would be very out of date. However after viewing it gave me so much to think about primarily how love can can disappear as we mature and people whom we loved early in life change causing us to drift apart whether wanting to or not. This is truly a movie for the intelligence. No nude scenes or scenes of sexual activity, rather our human experiences. The acting was first rate as well as the cinematography. I think this film has held up well over the years as it deals with the timeless issues of the human experience.

Movie Review: Dodsworth
Summary: 5 Stars

A great movie. I have viewed it on several occasions on TCM, and recently purchased it. All the characters are so finely drawn and filled out. In this new age of Hollywood two-dimentional films, it is always a true pleasure to view such a well crafted and produced movie. The joy and sadness of this very wise film impresses me every time I view it. I can only hope that some day a blu-ray edition will be made of this classic wonder.

Movie Review: One of the best movies of the 1930's...
Summary: 5 Stars

And yet, you don't hear about it, the way you hear about Gone With The Wind, Wuthering Heights, The Wizard of Oz, etc. One of the few films where it can truly be said that the script, the acting (Walter Huston as Sam Dodsworth deserved the Oscar, and so did Ruth Chatterton as his unsympathetic wife) and the direction were all 100% perfect. Nothing needed to be added, deleted or changed. And that's a rare film!

Movie Review: Dodsworth
Summary: 5 Stars

An adult, perceptive romantic drama, beautifully played. Director William Wyler and screenwriter Sydney Howard minimize the soapiness inherent in the premise, leaving an honest and surprisingly moving film about love lost and re-discovered. Huston is superb.

Movie Review: just wonderful
Summary: 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this film, made my purchase based on reviews, and it turned out even better than I expected. It even had me in tears at one point. This film is worth every cent and I'm glad I have it.
