Movie Review: Julia
Summary: 4 Stars

Based on a section of Lilian Hellman's PENTIMENTO, it tells about Hellman's gradual involvement in the resistance movement during WW II. Jane Fonda plays Hellman, Jason Robards is Dashiel Hammett in a bit role, and Vanessa Redgrave is Julia, a rich friend of Hellman's since childhood who is deeply involved in the German resistance. Hellman is asked to smuggle $50,000 into Germany on her way to Moscow; she does so under great risk, and then Julia is arrested and murdered. Julia is supposed to represent great courage, and Redgrave plays her with an angelic quality; Hellman is the initiate into all that Julia is. Done very artfully, though it's lacking in drama.

Movie Review: Not too dated
Summary: 4 Stars

Lushly photographed, you can watch this just for the gorgeous scenes in pre-war Paris and Berlin. Supposedly about two strong women, Jane Fonda's role as Hellman makes her out to be a bit of a klutz. Vanessa Redgrave's brief appearances mark the stronger of the two. Made in 1977 when WW2 was closer in time than Vietnam is now, the movie is a bit of a relic, but still worth watching. Jason Robards as Dashiell Hammett is a hoot. Fonda needed acting lessons then, just like now. Too much emoting for my taste.
