Review of Julie (1956) by Kevin R — 14 Feb 2015

You're in danger, grave danger...

Julie has recently remarried the man of her dreams after the tragic death of her husband. The man was a friend of the couple and is a successful business man that showers her with gifts and just about anything she asks for; unfortunately, she has a hard time getting over her previous husband's demise. When a friend shares some evidence her new husband may be responsible for her deceased husband's death...she starts going a little crazy.

"He nearly killed us both; but he seemed so sorry, so desperately sorry.".

Andrew Stone, director of Song of Norway, Hi Diddle Diddle, The Last Voyage, The Great Waltz, Ring of Fire, The Steel Trap, and Say It in French, delivers Julie. The storyline for this picture is just okay and not overly dramatic. I felt the film was fairly average for the most part but turns slightly ridiculous towards the end. The acting was solid and the cast includes Doris Day, Jack Kelly, Ann Robinson, Louis Jourdan, Barry Sullivan, and Jack Kruschen.

"I was in no mood for golf; after a few holes, I'd had it.".

I recorded this off Turner Classic Movies (TCM) this past Halloween season and was excited to see a Doris Day picture. This, unfortunately, was very mediocre and could have been better. I thought the final plane sequence was good until she ultimately had to fly the plane (ridiculous). Overall, this is below average and not really worth your time.

"I want to report a murder.".

Grade: C-.
