Movie Reviews of Down to Earth
Movie Review: Rita Hayworth...the Real Terpsichore
Summary: 5 Stars
Rita is the true "Goddess of Song & Dance"...(at least dance...who cares about the dubbed singing?). The only thing lacking is the best kind of dancing she did in her previous films. In this film, the Greek ballet too long, the modern jazzy version too short with a finale that does no justice for Rita's dancing talents. Aside from that, a well balanced film of music, comedy, drama that is a heart-warming story perfectly casted with supporting actors at their best.
The quality of this DVD is perfect in sharpness, color and sound and one that will surely be enjoyed over and over.
Movie Review: A Must For All Rita Hayworth Fans
Summary: 5 Stars
Although this film often seems a little unreal at the beginning it developes into one of a number of marvelous Rita Hayworth dancing extravaganza's! Its not my favourite Rita film but has many many attributes and is quite individual in storyline and approach. I would definately recommend buying this film and for Rita Hayworth fans like me its a must. Beautifully presented and worth the small price! Go on treat yourself!Movie Review: Rita is really Beautiful in this movie but the movie is so so
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are a Rita fan this is a must see for you. The camera loves her, thats the treat here. The movie and songs aren't that good, the story is really empty and not interesting except for Rita. What a real Goddess she will always be to me!!!!Movie Review: Movie: "Down to Earth" with Rita Hayworth
Summary: 5 Stars
This was one of my favorite movies when I was in my teens. I still love it.Movie Review: Rita Hayworth sings and dances like an angel
Summary: 4 Stars
Rita Hayworth sings and dances like an angel while playing the Greek Love Goddess, Terpsichore, in this musical/fantasy/romantic comedy (1947). Director Alexander Hall known for hits such as; Once Upon a Time (1)(1944; Cary Grant and Janet Blair) and Here Comes Mr. Jordan (2)(1941; Robert Montgomery and Evelyn Keyes), recreated his 1941 movie with new stars and a musical theme. For many Rita Hayworth fans, this is simply fantastic as Hayworth rewrote her name as love goddess in the history of Hollywood. This is a perfect film which exploits the dancing/singing skills Hayworth; combined with sheer beauty, adorned in lovely costumes, extravagant décor in the company of charming chorus girls, Terpsichore comes down to earth from heaven as Kitty Pendleton to a play in a musical. The premise being Terpsichore becomes upset over the way her character is presented in the show, and therefore with the approval of Mr. Jordan (Roland Culver) and messenger 7013 (Edward Everett Horton), she stars and tries to correct the show with the help of producer Danny Miller (Larry Parks.) Kitty and Danny have constant arguments over the way the musical is being presented; when the show fails to impress the critics and spectators, Kitty decides to quit and go back to heaven, but Mr. Jordan convince her to stay and help Danny to resurrect the show. When the show becomes successful, Kitty learns that she is love with Danny and that there is not much fun returning to heaven. The dance and signing routines are not as good as her movie with Gene Kelly (Cover Girl)(3), but satisfactory. Larry Parks is not the best choice for the lead romantic role, but Rita Hayworth steals the show: This movie is highly recommended to all fans of Rita Hayworth.
