Review of Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison (1957) by Lee Anne W — 07 Sep 2012
Forget the whole Twilight/Fifty Shades of Grey thing: THIS is a piece of entertainment worth writing porny fan fic about. Robert Mitchum, OH MY GOD Robert Mitchum--bass voice, broad shoulders, sleepy eyes, tan, scruffy--is a Marine who washes up on a South Pacific island inhabited only by Deborah Kerr.
A nun. Who hasn't taken her final vow yet. There's real suspense here, as the Japanese come and go, and beautiful scenery and score. It's very similar to that other John Huston classic from this time, The African Queen.
And I loved every minute of it.
