Review of Come Back, Little Sheba (1953) by Julie R — 14 Aug 2004
[b]Come Back, Little Seeba (1952) [/b].
Tawdry tale of alcoholism and how a marriage of necessity doesn't make for a happily-ever-after ending. Burt Lancaster turns in a pretty good performance as a recovering alcoholic who is tightly controlled until he goes inexplicably and dramatically out of control on a drinking binge. Shirley Booth won an Oscar playing his whining wife, an annoying but sad character. They are two mismatched, unhappy people who stick together because they have no one else. Rather depressing and not particularly well-written.
