The Sun Also Rises (1957)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope 129m
Director: Henry King
Cast: Tyrone Power, Ava Gardner, Mel Ferrer, Errol Flynn
Synopsis:
A motley group of American writers and professional indolents loll around cafés in Paris and Pamplona, gravitating around the once attached couple of Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley.
Review:
One of the most tedious and uneventful movies ever to carry a portentously literary title, this Hemingway adaptation achieves a certain momentousness in the long Pamplona section but is held back by the banality of the material and the inadequacy of its leads and director, who was trying to do another Snows of Kilimanjaro. Eddie Albert and Flynn, like Power in one of his last roles, do well in support.
