I loved this movie. I thought the banter between Holden and Mitchum were subtly hilarious. The facial expressions were spot on from Holden. Young was formidable in this part as well. I think it takes a strong cast to make a movie that revolves around four sole characters. It was a great romantic comedy. I liked the chemistry between Mitchum and Young on screen. I also thought that Gary Gray added the right amount of drama/comedy to the whole show. I loved the scenes in the woods with Mitchum and Holden bickering and making their pleas to Young. All in all, I think this is a good movie, and definitely worth the time of watching.

I loved this movie from the very beginning to the end. I think the acting was impeccable on Jennifer Jones' part. I'm definitely no movie critic, but this movie spoke to me on some level. I was in tears by the end, and so was my husband (don't tell him I shared that with the web).

While the movie did run a bit long, I appreciated every second. I fell in love with the characters. I wanted Bernadette to be vindicated. I was happy to see that the governmental authority failed to stop Bernadette or her belief in what she seen and felt in her heart.

I wish that the average person today could fall in love with a classic movie like this. It's too bad that sex, violence, and dirty language have infiltrated Hollywood so completely.

This is definitely my favorite movie of all time.

There is something very inspiring and endearing about this movie.
