1957 Best Picture Winner
Premiered December 18, 1957 in New York
Budget $3 Million
Gross $33.3 Million
I (Joel) feel that this is the best movie we've seen so far. My two favorites so far have been Rebecca and Casablanca, however this one gets the edge because this film has such a great message. The film has many redeemable qualities to it: courage, honor and the message that you should work hard at everything put in your path. The theme of the movie really spoke to me as a man.
The acting is excellent, the script is great and the ending is the most exciting and suspenseful that we've encountered yet. We recommend this movie to everyone, especially if you've never seen it.
Joel
Favorite: The theme of the movie resonated with me.
Least Favorite: I wanted a purely honorable character. All of them were flawed: Nicholson began to go insane, Shears was a coward at times, Clipton was pessimistic but was the closest to being "pure"
Callie
Favorite: The last 10 minutes were tense and exciting.
Least Favorite: It was too long.
