A Vat Full Of Colorful Soap Suds
was excited to finally obtain a copy of this movie, which isn’t always easy to do. The DVD is too expensive to buy sight-unseen, so I grabbed a used VHS when I saw it on sale. For one, my brother had said “You HAVE to see Dorothy Malone in this film. She’s unbelievable.” Then, a bunch of classic film board posters had praised this film, so my interest was there.

Well, one viewing was enough. I am just not a fan of soap operas, and this is so “soapy” you could fill a tub big enough to wash (you fill in the blank.)

I have no problem with the four main actors of this film – Robert Stack, Rock Hudson, Lauren Bacall and Dorothy Malone – having enjoyed all of them in other movies/TV shows. However, the characters they played in this movie were unappealing. The only “normal” guy, ironically, turned out to be the one Rock Hudson played. Bacall’s dialog, at least early on, was unrealistic; Malone’s looks turned me off (I was spoiled, having seen her look fantastic in other things; here she was just cheap-looking , which was what they wanted); and Stack, well, he was just plain super-annoying. That’s what soap fans want, anyway: annoying, loser-type people. Me, I prefer some nice, normal characters.

So, if you like whining drunks, squabbling siblings, stupid romances, etc., this is your cup of tea. However, one thing in here that was to interest was the color palate: it’s pretty wild. I’m sure this looked a lot better on DVD than on the tape I watched.

To be fair, the film is okay and the story is just fine for what it is: a ’50s melodrama. It’s a good movie for those who like this genre. I’m just not a fan of these overwrought stories, but I’ll still rate the movie decently for what it presents: good acting, a somewhat-involving story and interesting cinematography with a wild color scheme.
