Review of Advise & Consent (1962) by Kartik K — 13 May 2017
+ Washington, DC. The more things stay the same, the more they don't change, except now there're many more women in the game - and what was hidden in this story until the 3rd Act is now full monty.
+ Surprising that in '62 that the choice was made to shoot wide-screen black-&-white - our last chance never to see Tierney's Newman blue eyes. And you'll never see a movie with more wandering camera shadows.
Peter Lawford: What can be said. Gifted for ingratiating himself into a Rat Pack figure and laying the others' cast offs while playing "The Love Boat." + 15-minutes too long, there are good performances in the screen realization of the popular book that takes one back to the end of the Eisenhower era.
