Movie Reviews of Rose of Washington Square
Movie Review: Stand By Your Man Theme
Summary: 3 Stars
This movie starts off with lots of fun-filled music and dance. And some Prohibition era speak easy scenes. It features a very young and still handsome as ever Tyrone Powers as a good-hearted con man. With Alice Faye being the naive girl who falls for him even though Al Jolson's character warns her about him. It would be an all around great movie except that they go over board with the Stand By Your man theme. Al Jolson's trademark song about Mammy is featured in the movie several times. And Alice Faye proves to be a good singer. All in all, the movie starts off fun and easy going but has a rather depressing ending. As even though it ends well, they just go too overboard with Alice Faye being the desperately in love with her man against all reason type.
