Movie Reviews of The Eddy Duchin Story

Movie Review: Big budget cinemascope production
Summary: 4 Stars

If you are looking for a big budget, glossy, beautifully filmed (George Sidney directed), manipulative tearjerker, this is perfect. The good: this is hollywood doing what it does best - lots of pretty people, pretty set pieces, pretty scenery. The music is great. It's all fluffy stuff and good date material. The bad: Tyrone Power was way too old to be playing the part. No one will believe that Tyrone, with crow's feet, is Eddie Duchin in his early twenties. Kim Novak is vacuous and her death scene is absurd. She looks better dying than what most people look like after a vacation at a summer cottage. The conflict between Eddie and his son is contrived. The first half of the film is a musical and the second half is grade "C" soap opera. Good enough to see. Not good enough to be a great pic.

Movie Review: Old-fashioned love story
Summary: 4 Stars

Anyone who's weary of violence, blood, and computerized special effects will love this one. Kim Novak at her luminescent best and Tyrone Power in another matinee-idol performance as the ill-fated romantic couple, Marjorie Oelrich and Eddy Duchin. Bring out a hankie!

Movie Review: The Eddy Duchin Story
Summary: 4 Stars

Recommended by a good friend. An excelent movie with great acting from both the leads and the young boy who plays his Son. I was also very impressed by the speed at which the movie came. One week half way around the world to Australia is pretty impressive. Thank you.
