Movie Reviews of Pinky
Movie Review: phony liberal guilt at its most obnoxious
Summary: 2 Stars
elia kazan directed this liberal race fantasy which today reeks of the type of phoniness that kazan mocked when it came to jews in "gentlemans agreement". jeanne crain is ridiculous as the black girl who has been passing for white up north, but whose horrible secret comes to the surface when she goes home on a visit to grandma. turgid direction and a stupid script, occasionally saved by the sterling supporting performances of ethel barrymore (as a dying southern grande dame who takes an interest in pinkys future), and ethel waters as pinkys grandmother (and speaking of miss waters, when oh when will we be able to see her stunning performance in "member of the wedding" on dvd?). "pinky" is patronizing in a defining use of the word.
