THE FRENCH LINE
Directed by Lloyd Bacon; with Jane Russell, Gilbert Rodand, Arthur Hunnicutt,
Mary McCarty, Craig Stevens, and Steven Geray.
on't
know why I'm including this one on my list except it's a personal favorite;
Jane Russell is big, busty, and sassy in her role as a rich Texan who
disguises her fortune and sets sail for Paris to find a man more interested
in her person. (It seems RKO Pictures wanted the same for Russell's
fans, the film was originally made in 3-D.) Too bad the whole romantic
mess takes place on a cruise to France, but the musical numbers are
giant and flashy, the costumes are Lone Star-studded, and the parley
is as kitsch as the gift shop at the Alamo. Texas is way big enough
to maintain its personality on the high seas.
