Review of Bigger Than Life (1956) by Andrey B — 19 Sep 2018
A 'problematic' film from the 50's. Its most salient feature is Jason Mason's terrific performance as a schoolteacher, husband and father who experiences an enormous pressure in order to be able to lead a seemingly normal life.
The assured direction by Nicholas Ray heavily solidifies the film and truly makes it a companion piece to his own 'Rebel Without a Cause'.
