A Face in the Crowd (Movie Review)

In The world of Hollywood today. The movie industry has left long-lasting impressions to the public, from their over the top special effects in actions movies to their gut busting funny comedies, but it is rare that you find a film that embodies some of these genres. It seems to be that today movies have lost a certain excitement to them, so you end up not being happy with what you paid for, and the movie ends up being a flop. In the case of the movie “A face in the Crowd” it has both comedy, drama and suspense. Even though the movie shows in black And white the overall storyline is well written. Reporter Marcia Jeffries (Patricia Neal) Interviews the towns drunken hobo Larry 'Lonesome' Rhodes (Andy Griffith) for her radio station at a local Jail in town, He soon captured the radio listeners by his Charming personality and his fast wit. He soon became an over night success, but things start to go down hill after he gets a taste of power and fame. I recommend this movie to anyone. It’s a bundle of laughs and tears and a timeless classic for the generation of today.
