Review of Carmen Jones (1954) by Bosley Crowther for The New York Times — 05 Dec 2000
There is nothing wrong with the music—except that it does not fit the people or the words. But that did not seem to make much difference to Mr. Hammerstein or Mr. Preminger. They were carried away by their precocity.
The present consequence is a crazy mixed-up film.
