Good 1950s Period Piece, 2 May 2000
10/10
Author: Rob Bowling (RocketInNYC) from Missouri, USA

I really like this movie... it is a great period piece of the 1950s. I think people forget that a period piece doesn't have to be of some century-ago. The acting is excellent all-around, although the voice-overs are a bit much.
