Amazing actress. So many great performances. Can't say I love her in everything though; the last movie I saw her in I thought she was all over the place (including her accent), portraying Nora Clitheroe in John Ford's drama 'The Plough And The Stars' (1936). Oh, I haven't seen this but now I must, petrolino. It sounds like a bit of terrible casting to me. I don't think Sean O'Casey and Barbara Stanwyck would be a good mix. It also doesn't appear to be one of John Ford's best efforts. Can't wait till it shows up on TCM. Interesting to ponder. . . Hi spiderwort. I read that this film was mutilated by studio interference which may have dimmed the overall effectiveness of Stanwyck's performance somewhat. She does seem miscast though, despite submitting occasional moments of power during raw close-ups. |
