And even a wacky movie like Ball of Fire is one where she plays her character to near perfection that it's real.

It is so entertaining that once you start watching it, the next thing you know it's midnight!

Well, she made Blonde Fever at MGM the same year, 1944, so I would say she had a small contract.

> To be filming for months in the desert - with 65mm cameras, at that - couldn't have been an easy thing. But it turned out to be such a magnificent film - nowadays they'd just shoot in a soundstage with green-screen and add CGI effects in the background.

That's what makes it so authentic.

I don't like the fact that it was done in such a documentary style way. Frankly it bores me half the time. And also how, for lack of a better word, "different" it is. Compared to practically every film of its day, it's very unorthodox, and that's what I don't want to see in a classic film. I sure do have respect for it, but as you said, is very overrated.
It also doesn't have enough of anything in it. Not enough comedy, drama, romance, or suspense...it pretty much makes it's own genre!

Come to think of it, she would of looked great in Technicolor, and maybe as Jean Porter's role!

Can I make a guess and say Roman Holiday is yours?

Yes, it was a good intro. And also he brought up how committed you had to be to work with David Lean. That's why Finney turned it down, and I believe Brando for the same reason. Even when it came to Doctor Zhivago, Rod Steiger was on the set for 12 months! But, in the end, it all payed off with each film, and as you can see, with this one, everybody worked their heart out.

You could say that!

This is also one of her best performances, but in my opinion, not as good as Stella Dallas.

My two favorite Red movies are Ship Ahoy and Bathing Beauty. He really makes his films 10 times better.

The Bad and the Beautiful:
*Shields*: Don't worry. Some of the best movies are made by people working together who hate each other's guts.

I really can't wait until Primrose Path. It looks really good, and RO says it's Gingers most underrated performance.
