Review of Laura

Laura (I) (1968 TV Movie)
5/10
Impression and Stack's comment
30 June 2013
I was 21 when this aired, a big fan of the 1944 movie "Laura" and was eagerly anticipating it. However, I remember being very disappointed. I know Radziwill got poor reviews from the critics and it seemed to end her acting career. It might have rerun within that same year. Then it disappeared. I'd almost forgotten it. I do remember a published comment by Robert Stack. Something about the way the camera lenses were used to make Radziwill look younger and "they had me looking like Grandma Moses." And he was right, he looked shockingly old and wrinkled. I looked it up and he was 49 and she was 35 at the time.

I would call it a teleplay because it was staged like play not like a TV movie. It had a distinguish cast, but I remember thinking she wasn't a very good actress and wasn't surprised by the critics.
