Review of Laura

Laura (1944)
8/10
Entertaining; Tierney is beautiful, but movie is overrated.
19 December 1998
Interesting, entertaining and unusual as a classic film noir of the 40s, but,frankly, overrated. Tierney is breathtakingly beautiful, Webb is at his suave and prissy best, and the title song is a classic. The supporting actors- Price and Andrews are very good in their roles. However, the plot is kind of obvious and the pace is slow. I liked the movie well enough to buy the video (mainly for Tierney), but like two other Tierney movies better- Son of Fury and The Razor's Edge.
