Movie Reviews of Les Girls
Movie Review: could ANYBODY resist a taina elg musical?
Summary: 2 Stars
george cukor only ventured into musicals on rare occasions. two of those ("a star is born" and "my fair lady") are classics; "les girls" is assuredly not. this was gene kellys last mgm musical, and cole porters penultimate score of any kind, and neither master is at his peak; as a matter of fact theyre both pretty close to their nadirs. kellys attempt at parodying marlon brando in "the wild one" (already a passe reference by the time this was filmed) is downright embarrassing, and the supporting "girls" (when mitzi gaynor is the biggest star among them) just kinda sit there like a lump. if thats entertainment ...
Movie Review: dreary puzzle
Summary: 1 Stars
This is really such a dreary film, with all these wonderful people. How could it have turned out so dull? I suppose Porter must have been sick at the time. But there is nothing really alive here: the songs are below second rate, the dances are nothing, and the story -- which should be sparkling -- isn't. The bulk of the blame probably goes to the script, but it is interesting how unloveable Gene Kelly is here: the part is completely wrong for him. Hard to say why. Perhaps the truth is that everyone in the film is too old for their parts (except Elg) and too intelligent to be dragged down by what is essentialy one of those late 30s films about backstage life. None of them are believable as innocent naives. Curiously enough, Fred Astaire might have made the thing work: but that is because he was always better at being the naive surprised at his own emotions.Movie Review: Dont be deceived
Summary: 1 Stars
I thought this would be a fun. light evening - something to take my mind off my troubles - I am on ublic assistance so it is very hard to scrape together the money to rent a movie - I had free passes from Chirstmas so I go this with those. I remeber loviing to dance when I was a litle girl - I tapped and did some jazz dancing - nothing like these ladies - who do almost nude dancing in this "family" film. This story was about EMOTIONAL ABUSE - women suffering becasue some man has treated them like garbage. I was abused my whole liffe until one day I took a walk to a store (my husband had hidden the keys from me - I looked for them but at the time I was drugging - hooked on meth) and found a book on emotional abuse that changed my life. They shoudl remake this movie and the women should get revenge on the men for all the abuse. No one will ever hurt me again.
