Review of Picnic (1955) by Byron B — 07 Jul 2008
Roger Ebert had a reasoning for his 2 stars for this picture that does make sense to me. That being that the Novak character was disappointed that no one took the time to get to know her yet the basic attraction between her and the William Holden character is strictly superficial.
If you choose to overlook this flaw in plot logic then you should find this to be a very sexy romance story. There is an undeniable chemistry between Holden and Novak.
Visually the film is transient but very appealing to the eye. I recommend atleast one viewing.
