Movie Reviews of The Stratton Story

Movie Review: When it ends, you'll wish there was more
Summary: 5 Stars

When one hears about the most famous and most loved Jimmy Stewart movies, the list usually goes something like this: IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE, HARVEY, REAR WINDOW, VERTIGO, THE PHILADELPHIA STORY, SHENANDOAH. And for whatever reason, you would have to dig a little deeper to find THE STRATTON STORY. But now having watched it for myself for the first time, I would rank it up there with REAR WINDOW and HARVEY. THE STRATTON STORY is simply one of the best films ever made, but unfortunately it has been often overlooked.

STRATTON boasts expert performances from Jimmy Stewart, the endearing June Allyson, and Frank Morgan. It has the kind of good acting that makes you wish the movie would keep going on. The true story of Monty Stratton as reproduced on film is of the unknown underdog who is then defeated and nearly destroyed and comes back more determined than ever. The story of the underdog is all too common in Hollywood today. But they never show the underdog who rises to the top, gets knocked down lower than he started, and comes back again.

I'm very glad I watched THE STRATTON STORY, and I will be very glad when I watch it again.
