Review of The Country Girl (1954) by Real G — 16 Dec 2004

Now you know I like my Grace Kelly. And Bing Crosby is just pimp. And William Holden is just badass. So the rating for this film is basically arbitary or me. 10, 8, 7 whatever. This is the only film that Grace would win an Oscar for and when you see the acting in this film, dammit, this girl can act!! And Bing is pretty good himself and Holden holds his own, no play on words intended.

Now, no Grace won't look her radiant gorgeousness of To Catch a Thief or the smooth elegant woman of Rear Window. Aside from a short flashback sequence where she's absolutely stunning and gushing and :D, she's pretty frumpy looking.

Dressed like an old lady as Holden puts it. But it works dammit and this film rules. Check it out!!!
