5/10
Fair Movie

Warning: Spoilers
Golden Earlings is a fair movie, not good or bad. My biggest problem I have was Marlene Dietrich ( Lydia). I never liked her ( except in Desire and Knight Without Armour). One problem is she looked old enough to be Ray Milland's ( Ralph Denistoun) mother, another is her behavior and looks which and pure camp. Milland is by far the best one in this movie, and fortunately he is in it far more then Dietrich. Here he plays a British spy prior to World War II who has to get information about a poison gas from a scientist in Germany. Of course there is the romance between Milland and Gypsy Dietrich. The best way to look at this film is not too seriously. There is a lot of comedy in it ( mostly by Milland) mixed with him finishing off a number of bad guys. Basically the entire outcome is completely implausible ( especially spoilers ahead; How Milland gets back with Dietrich at the end of the movie). 5/10 stars mostly for Milland.
