Title: Very boring compared to the original move entitled "The Heiress"
Review: Washington Square is a remake of the 1949 excellent film entitled, "The Heiress" in which Olivai De havilland won the Oscar for Olivia De Havilland for her portrayal of Catherine Sloper, the "plain Jane" who fell in love with the handsome Morris Townsend, played by Montgomery Clift.The first mistake in making Washington Square, which by the way is the the original title of the book by Henry James, was in casting Jennifer Jason Leigh. Of all the actors that could have been chosen, I couldn't understand how they picked her. I like Jennifer as an actress, but not in this movie.If you want to see an academy winning performance, see "The Heiress."
