My Foolish Heart

The worst 01 hour: and 38 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

melodramatic but well acted.

My Foolish Heart is an okay film. It is about a woman recalls her true love, the man she met and lost years ago after being visited by an old friend. Dana Andrews and Susan Hayward give decent performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Mark Robson did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama and romance.

What happened from the time it was written to the screen play and movie? She said Walt made her laugh. Not in the movie that's for sure, Dana Andrews is more like the perpetual funeral director. Susan Hayward brilliant. The vacillating character changes in the script to conform to an impossible story line were a bit much. Let's see, scheduled to go off to war, girl relents, they have sex, she is pregnant and soldier dies. For a war movie fine, for 1949 trite and formulaic. Some really good acting Dana Andrews not included. He's a dumb blonde in a mans body and the dumb blonde has only one character. Segments of great acting interrupted by that ridiculous flash back and more conveniently ridiculous ending. Something went horribly wrong from the original story to the movie set. Thank goodness Susan Hayward was there to provide a measure of redemption.

Weep along with Susan Hayward in her 2nd Oscar-nominated role as she worries what "Miriam Ball" would think of her attempts to fit into high society.

The best romance movie ever made!

A great film that's worth watching again and again.....

so this is basically what happen if on "the clock" they dont get married in the end of the movie

Just a tad bit too silly to be considered seriously. This is apparently a Salinger adaptation and Salinger was none too pleased with the result. I wouldn't be either.

I'll never forget this one because my late father would try to sing the song to me and it became one of my favorite movies. At one time, they played it a lot on tv.
