Review of Bus Stop

Bus Stop (1956)
8/10
Achingly fine performance by a vulnerable Monroe
17 March 2019
To the naysayers I say "you missed it" but I guess people either like MM or they do not. I was braced for the 50s-style corn, but not for the underlying sadness of Cherie, as rendered by Monroe, and in the end feel she did an incredibly good job with the role--not a false note anywhere.

An extra star (or two) for that very special performance.
