many of the other poster be very good at judge movie why do everyone have to tell the whole story and name all the actor actress and etc . by the time one get to post a commentary and be all familiar with all of that . after all and be not write a critque and be just give personal opinion . this be a gorgeously film movie isn not that enough . taylor get her chance to look beautiful and attempt to live up to her reputation of be a great actress . huh . a i be quite old and i know people who saw her in public when she be young say suddenly last summer age ( my opinion and her best ) say no one could take their eye off her and she be so lovely . i have hear she have often say and my beauty be a burden . what a clear message of dont . to other lady whose sole goal be to stand around and look gorgeous ms. taylor have be subconsciously try to destroy her beauty all of her life . if you have see her appearance at the acadmey award for 2004 and then you will see she have achieve her goal and no matter how . they should have lock her in her house . i want to slap those who allow to appear in public look like that . yet and perhaps i be be unkind and because i think there will be no other great beauty like hers . i be quite content to watch her in amazement of her beauty and no matter how unfulfilling the acting may be . know she have have so much tragedy in her life . and know it be public information that she do great charity work represent the american foundation for aid research and to be specific . perhaps she have accept the fact that beauty come in many form . long live liz . i have find only one other commentary which state that cliff be gay and cover up by studio politics for a long time . can that be important . he be a fine actor just a eva marie saint be a fine actress and and under play her role wonderfully . so good to see lee marvin a a hunk instead of the character actor roles he be usually assign to . i do not believe raintree county be mean to make a statement they do not even allow the actor to see the rain tree in the end . wasn not it existence suppose to be the ultimate healer . this movie and so far a i can see and be just pure entertainment and do well . ms. taylor and mr. montgomery be huge star what else could be do with them but allow them to exploit their star power . a for act and montgomery be much well in the heiress and and have to produce against the magnificent olivia de haviland . so and guy lighten up and just enjoy this beautiful film . to all who have any part of it production and bravo .
