Movie Reviews of I'll Be Seeing You
Movie Review: Lost in the Archives of Time
Summary: 4 Stars
My mother used to talk about this movie when I was younger, and how she loved it. I finally found it on Amazon, purchased it, and invited her to watch with me. It has the look and feel of the old war (the Big One)with a slightly different twist--Ginger Rogers is a murderer on Christmas furlough. Shirley Temple is classic Shirley--neither impressive nor instrumental to the plot--as the teenaged daughter of Ginger's relatives. Joseph Cotten, suffering from battle fatigue, predictably falls for Ginger, rescuing her from a vicious dog and relying on her image to pull him through a perspiration-packed relapse. "I'll Be Seeing You" comes off more as a made-for-television movie, but because the people in the movie are major stars, they brighten the screen more than the lackluster plot could ever do. Overall, I enjoyed the movie, the company, and the quiet one hour and twenty-five minutes spent. I would recommend it for those who are nostalgic, but I don't believe it would stand up for the younger generation that craves blood, violence and sex on every frame.Movie Review: a love story undiminished by time
Summary: 4 Stars
An immortal wartime romance with Ginger Rogers and Joseph Cotten, I'LL BE SEEING YOU remains one of the most beloved films of the era. Rogers plays Mary Marshall, a female ex-con on parole, who meets by chance the handsome yet severely shell-shocked soldier Zachary Morgan (Cotten). Their romance plays out against the odds; two damaged people who find comfort and understanding in each other.
Based on the radio play "Double Furlough" by Charles Martin, the screenplay by Marion Parsonnet amiably showcases Rogers and Cotten in some of their most vivid and unguarded work. With Shirley Temple, Spring Byington (who had previously co-starred in 1940's "The Blue Bird"), Chill Wills and Tom Tully.
Movie Review: How did this movie get missed?
Summary: 4 Stars
Sometimes great works simply fall through the cracks and people don't notice them - well, this is one of them.
In this war-time drama, Ginger Rogers plays a woman who is let out of jail to rejoin her uncles and cousin for Christmas. Only for Christmas. On the train, she meets a soldier with war traumas, Joseph Cotten. As he descends on the same stop, a series of events will lead to a gentle, often heartwarming closeness between the two, shadowed by the deceits both at first did not reveal. The movie finale should rank among the best Christmas movie endings ever. it's also an added bonus to watch the teen Shirley Temple as the cousin, if you're a movie buff.
Movie Review: Overlooked Movie
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very good movie that is seldom seen on the classic movie channels, but is definitely worth watching. While the idea of a movie about an inmate on furlough from a woman's prison and a shell shocked veteran might seem a little depressing, it's really not. The scenes between Joseph Cotten and Ginger Rogers are very touching and the supporting actors, which include Spring Byington and an adolescent Shirley Temple, were well cast. The result is a warm hearted and inspirational movie. It's one of Ginger Rogers best vehicles and, im my opinion, ranks up there with Kitty Foyle.Movie Review: sweet romance
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an above average believable romantic movie with an original storyline including a few surprises along the way. All the actors turn in strong perfomances. Even Shirley Temple is well cast. I especially recommend this movie for all fans of Joseph Cotton and Ginger Rogers. This may be Ms Roger's best dramatic role.
