Been done. One too many times. Want to read a good one, scroll down to "lasttimeisawit"'s review. I'm just going to say, feeling bad about YOUR dysfunctional family ? Watch this little tale and feel better, or at least not alone. This is a real "Murican" story. Now not all of us can go see the Broadway play, unfiltered and unmolested. So this is what we have. The movie. And it's a great one. Nominated for six little gold statues, but beat out on almost every count by "Gigi". Well, maybe "Gigi" deserved them all, and maybe not. We all know how political that scene can be. One more thing: read the trivia. Liz Taylor's husband died the day before filming began. She carried on, went to work and delivered an Oscar worthy performance in spite of the shock/ grief. Not to mention Paul Newman, Burl Ives ( who I now know named names !). Anyway, this is an amazing piece of film.

Better than a lot of drek being peddled. Crime drama. Nuff said.
