Review of Somebody Up There Likes Me (2013) by Ryan P — 26 Jan 2013
Not a great movie from Robert Wise, but it's very enjoyable. Paul Newman (who replaced James Dean as the film's star after the actor's untimely death) is pretty good in the role that launched him to stardom, and to quote a line from a review I really like by Bosley Crowther of The New York Times, ''Robert Wise's direction is fast, aggressive and bright, and the picture is edited to give it a tremendous crispness and pace.
'' Winner of 2 Oscars back in 1956 -- Best Cinematography (Black and White) & Best Art Direction.
