Review of Summer and Smoke (1961) by Jason H — 03 Jan 2008
Geraldine Page was a hit on stage in Tennessee Williams Sweet Bird of Youth, but on film her performance in this Tennessee Williams-film is far superior - and so is the film. With the exception of her Oscar-winning performance in A TRIP TO BOUNTIFUL this is the best thing she has ever done and she as well as veteran actress Una Merkel received Oscar-nomination for their poignant and poetic acting in this film version of very underrated Tennesse Wiiliams play.
