Debbie Reynolds was so annoying in this movie


To say she was terrible would be an understatement.
She acted like a spoiled brat and basically had all the talent of a 2yo in this movie

Huh? Reynolds MADE this film. The scene in the jail cell is easily recalled by every hetero-sexual male who ever saw the film.....

Couldn't disagree with you more, Debbie was perfect in this film.

What? I think Debbie Reynolds is one of the few actresses in movies who could successfully pull off "cute"

I thought so, too. In fact, I can't stand these mannered 50s movies.

I've never specifically been a fan of Debbie, but I thought she was adorable in this movie. I just couldn't get enough of her. I'm guessing she must have been a dancer in her earlier days. The girl could move. Her close-ups were especially beautiful. You thought she was acting like a spoiled brat because that was what her character was - so she obviously did a good job with it. I must say that I have a renewed appreciation for her. I expect I'll be watching this movie again in the very near future - mostly because of Debbie Reynolds.
