Title: Painful Movie
Product review: It was pure agony watching this horribly overly melodramatic, wretchedly acted film. The story line was jumbled and veered off all over the place - completely disjointed and messy. The characters were half fairy dust and half bombasity. It was astounding to see such reknown actors reduced to high school theatrics. Clark Gable did the best he could with the trite dialogue and silly scenarios. Sidney Poitier was excellent and admirably portrayed the black anger of the 1950's that this film is really about. If you could only watch his scenes (minus the awful dubbed singing)it could be somewhat worthwhile. I finally turned the film off before its oh so timely end.
