Movie Reviews of Ruby Gentry
Movie Review: Fantastic Movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
First of all, I am a HUGE fan of Jennifer Jones!!!! So, I love any movie she is in... But, truly, she is great in this movie. A very diverse actress, with an unusual beauty for that time... she plays the part of "a girl from the wrong side of the tracks" like no-one else can. Charlton Heston looks BEAUTIFUL as ever, the character he plays is pitch perfect! And the time, place, and era of the film are spot on! Karl Malden is great as well, playing the "Southern Gentleman" and father figure to a T.
This movie is as intriguing as "Duel in The Sun," in which Jennifer is paired with Gregory Peck.
I LOVE THIS
Summary of Ruby Gentry
Academy AwardÂ(r)-winning* actress Jennifer Jones (Duel in the Sun, The Song of Bernadette) delivers Â"a powerful performanceÂ" (The Hollywood Reporter) as a strong-willed Southern beauty from the wrong side of the tracks in this bold, sweeping drama co-starring OscarÂ(r) winners** Charlton Heston and Karl Malden.She was raised in the rugged swamplands. He was born into wealth and privilege. Yet, from the moment Ruby (Jones) first laid eyes on Boake (Heston), she vowed to have him for her own. Now, the residents of the small tidewater town will do everything in their power to stand in her way. But theyÂ've never seen a passion like this oneÂ...and theyÂ've never met a woman like Ruby!*1943: Actress, The Song of Bernadette**Heston: Actor, Ben-Hur (1959); Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award (1977); Malden: Supporting Actor, A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)
