Movie Reviews of The Greatest Show on Earth
Movie Review: Amazon is great
Summary: 1 Stars
Did not receive any response or DVD from dvdlegacy. Amazon is great. After sending 2 emails to the sponsor Amazon promptly refunded my money and removed dvdlegacy from their list. It really pays to read the ratings before placing an order. I will continue to use Amazon as their customer service is fantastic.
Summary of The Greatest Show on Earth
A circus managers high-wire girlfriend falls for a french aerialist. Oscar for best picture. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 01/17/2006 Starring: Dorothy Lamour James Stewart Run time: 152 minutes Rating: Nr Director: Cecil B. DemilleThe Greatest Show on Earth is a heaping helping of flapdoodle served up by one of Hollywood's canniest entertainers: producer-director Cecil B. DeMille. This overripe melodrama purports to be life inside the Ringling Brothers Circus; maybe it's not, but the circus ought to be like this. The actors wrestling with the purple dialogue are: early-career Charlton Heston, as the tough-as-nails circus manager; Cornel Wilde and Betty Hutton as trapeze artistes; and Gloria Grahame (who won an Oscar), dangling from elephants. Best of all, James Stewart plays a clown who--for mysterious reasons--never removes his makeup. (Stewart took the supporting role simply because he'd always wanted to play a clown.) This is a fried-baloney sandwich of a movie: it ain't sophisticated, and probably isn't good for you, but once you start you can't stop. It was the box-office champ of 1952, and it shocked everybody by winning the best picture Oscar. --Robert Horton
