Product: Julia (1971)
Rating: 4.0
Not too dated
Lushly photographed, you can watch this just for the gorgeous scenes in pre-war Paris and Berlin. Supposedly about two strong women, Jane Fonda's role as Hellman makes her out to be a bit of a klutz. Vanessa Redgrave's brief appearances mark the stronger of the two. Made in 1977 when WW2 was closer in time than Vietnam is now, the movie is a bit of a relic, but still worth watching. Jason Robards as Dashiell Hammett is a hoot. Fonda needed acting lessons then, just like now. Too much emoting for my taste.
