You can probably guess from the above statement that I wasn't exactly bowled over by this film. It has quite the reputation and is one of only a few films by Joshua Logan (and about all of them became famous and well-respected). It stars William Holden and Kim Novak. Holden is the handsome stranger that wanders into a small town and Novak is his love interest. Technically, it is very well-made with decent acting and direction. The problem is, for me, the story itself just didn't seem all that interesting or magical. However, considering its reputation, it is quite possible I am wrong--it might be great. All I know is, I was left pretty cold. Drop me a line some time--I'm really curious exactly what makes this a standout film. Most of my reviews are much longer than this one--mostly because I feel I have a lot more to say. This one, however, stumped me as it just left me like eating an entire meal of bread and water. It was filling but not particularly interesting.
