The Country Girl Ratings & Reviews
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Grace Kelly won the Best Actress Academy Award for her performance in this film, and while it's hard to find any serious cinephile today who doesn't believe the Oscar should have gone to Judy Garland for A Star Is Born, let's remember two points.
Film Culture
Andrew Sarris
If Seaton chooses to film Odets' love letter to the theatre as a dull tract on alcoholism, that is his business. It is the critic's business to discourage such ventures.
Common Sense Media
Andrea Beach
Great acting, heavy themes in Old Hollywood classic.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Based on Odets' play, Seaton's version is an odd, overrated melodrama about co-dependency in alcoholic marriages, with decent turns by Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly as the central couple.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The backstage drama, when judged by today's standards, seems stagy, creaky and outdated.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
If you enjoy Crosby as a crooner instead of a showman, this is your movie.
Goatdog's Movies
Michael W. Phillips, Jr.
Two of Hollywood's greatest stars give what might be their best performances.
