Movie Reviews of Marjorie Morningstar

Movie Review: Marjorie Morningstar
Summary: 5 Stars

Though not the typical performance expected of song and dance man Gene Kelly or starlet Natalie Wood, the pair ignite the screen in charasmatic performances in Marjorie Morningstar. Marjorie Morningstar tells the story of a young woman who falls head over heels for an older man while both are working at summer camps; the romance is a slow burning ember that perpetuates the fire of the story. Twists and turns keep the plot interesting - a sure fire hit for lovers of Wood and Kelly. Five stars!!!

Summary of Marjorie Morningstar

Marjorie morningstar is eighteen and very beautiful an innocent young heart eager to explore the excitement of a career in the theater. She leaves her family and fiance for a season of summer stock at an east coast resort where she meets and falls in love with a handsome but worldly producer. Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 01/11/2005 Starring: Gene Kelly Natalie Wood Run time: 125 minutes Rating: Nr
Natalie Wood and Gene Kelly make a cute (if not exactly convincing) couple in this Hollywood soap-opera version of Herman Wouk's coming-of-age romance. French/Russian Natalie Wood is decidedly non-ethnic as Marjorie Morgenstern, the starry-eyed Jewish college girl who falls in love with summer resort small-timer Gene Kelly (who never quite sells himself as a show-biz dreamer with limited talent). A stolid mix of modern, clear-eyed romance and old-fashioned melodrama, it nonetheless manages to slip in some frank (for 1958) discussions of sex and the single girl and sketch out an intriguing portrait of Jewish life in New York's upper crust between the romantic complications. Everett Sloane and Claire Trevor are excellent as Marjorie's success-obsessed parents, pre-Adam 12 Martin (Marty) Milner offers his boy-next-door charm as the former flunky turned Broadway success, and Ed Wynn is delightful as her eccentric uncle. --Sean Axmaker
