Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Terry S (145) on 13 Jul 2007

An acquired taste, but well worth trying. Strangely stilted and formalist performances that somehow become compelling…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Henry A (75) on 13 Jul 2007

Excellent defense of economic freedom. Whatever your views on Randian thought(mine are negative) it is still essential for any lover of freedom…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Wesley T (39) on 13 Jul 2007

Pretty good movie. It's all about character…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Patricia A (281) on 09 Jul 2007

Powerful stuff. The Book of the same name is a favourite with Stalkers and Serial Killers..! (This and Catcher in the Rye!!)…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Caleb S (234) on 09 Jul 2007

Not so good as its book...but far ahead of its time…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Timothy D (169) on 08 Jul 2007

This film makes a clear statement about individuality and freedom in a world of mediocrity and and conformity…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Jackson C (173) on 06 Jul 2007

Proof that books are better than movies…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Ashley H (2,345) on 04 Jul 2007

Fades and splitscreens are clumsily done, but most other aspects of this film aren't too distracting…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Jonathan D (792) on 29 Jun 2007

Philosophically, I find Rand's work deceiptful and wrong...but the movie is about art and not compromising--on that level it works…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Andrew W (1,668) on 29 Jun 2007

So Modern, So Vidor, So Cooper, So damn sweet…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Robin P (467) on 29 Jun 2007

Strange, riveting, tragic, & fullfilling. A little on the humanistic side, but I still found it to be an interesting film…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Berta A (90) on 27 Jun 2007

Casting is excellent, except for Neal and Cooper. Script is excellent, but Neal and Cooper fail to make the movie live up to the book…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Tony H (377) on 26 Jun 2007

The acting in this movie is so 'post war era', but you have to love it…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Abigail B (61) on 24 Jun 2007

I loved the book, so naturally I had to see the movie…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Emily M (387) on 22 Jun 2007

The BEST, but the book is even better. Read it…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Sean N (499) on 14 Jun 2007

I thought this was a good adaptation especially for its time. It is a story of a lived life…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Kate S (249) on 09 Jun 2007

Ayn Rand wrote the script for this movie and it shows. It is completely true to the book…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Matt J (593) on 08 Jun 2007

A good adaptation of my all-time favorite book. Howard Roark rules…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Tyler T (121) on 03 Jun 2007

How can you just put the fist 400 pages in the book in to one short flashback at the beginning of the movie…

Review of The Fountainhead (1949)

By Kye B (5) on 02 Jun 2007

This is an important movie for those who loved the book…
