Perfect cast and a good story
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
Roaming Through Northern Ireland (1949) ** 1/2 (out of 4) TravelTalk entry this time takes a look at Ireland, which is a location the series hit many, many times. This short pretty much takes a look at stuff like the land, the hills, the ocean, rivers and so on. With that in mind on a visual level the short is quite beautiful but the print shown on Turner Classic Movies is rather beat up and faded so the Technicolor really isn't given a chance to shine but at least we have a channel to play rarer films like this. It should once again be noted that today's internet will turn up better stuff so it's important to keep in mind when this was made and remember that, for the time, this was probably very entertaining stuff to people, which is probably why this series ran for so long.
