Review of The Sand Pebbles (1966) by Tom D — 15 Feb 2014
I thought the movie drug on the entire 3 hours and found myself watching it over four nights just to make it through. I kept waiting for its "great moment"which never happened. I thought McQueen's presence was barely there and the rest of the acting seemed amateurish at best.
Even a young Candice Bergen failed to make a mark in the film. Guess the eight snubs from the Academy were spot on.
