Movie Review: THE LILLIAN HELLMANN STORY
Summary: 5 Stars
Julia
Jane Fonda is excellent as Lillian Hellman in this adaptation of the author's Pentimento, which relates how Lillian was drawn into the European Resistance movement during the Thirties. But even better than Fonda, is Vanessa Redgrave, as her friend 'Julia'. And Jason Robards Jr. is far more credible than Jane, in his role as writer, Dashiell Hammett. Both he and Vanessa Redgrave, scored the Academy Awards, and so did the script-writer, Alvin Sargent.
Movie Review: Actually, 0 Stars Because...
Summary: 5 Stars
...I haven't bought the DVD yet. Loved/still love the movie as it was. But please don't just write movie reviews. I would primarily like to hear about shipping satisfaction and whether or not you think the DVD format/editing/quality etc. are to your expectations. Did you accidentally buy widescreen and want to warn others not to if they don't like letter-boxing? I ask reviewers to please remember to include product information. Thanks.Movie Review: Jane Fonda in "Julia"
Summary: 5 Stars
I had not seen this film since its initial release and to see it again 30 years later was a real treat. Both Jane Fonda and Vanessa Redgrave shine in their roles in this excellent film based on Lillian Hellman's true life experience during war time. Fonda is at her best in this film playing Lillian Hellman and Vanessa Redgrave won an Academy Award for her performance as Julia. It is a movie not to be missed by serious film buffs.Movie Review: Julia
Summary: 5 Stars
A wistful, compelling story about the power of female bonds and friendship. Fonda has never been better, Redgrave is luminous as the idealistic Julia, and Jason Robards conveys a worn assuredness as Hellman's husband, writer Dashiell Hammett. Zinnemann's handling of period detail in 1930s New York and Berlin is exquisite, and the film rightfully earned 11 Oscar nominations. A personal favorite.Movie Review: Julia
Summary: 5 Stars
Outstanding film. Jane Fonda is superb as Lillian Hellman and Jason Robards is his usual understated genious. Vanessa Redgrave is very good also. If you blink, you'll miss Meryl Streep in one of her earliest works. Her talent shows already. The historical and semi-biographical background is what attracted me to buy this film. Most highly recommended.
