THE ENTERTAINER (1960) - April 5, 2004
A mostly entertaining movie about a washed out entertainer and his relationship with his family. Laurence Olivier was really good in the title role. Altogether well-made, but yet again, muffled classroom speakers + heavy British accents = trouble. I probably would have enjoyed it more if I hadn't missed so much dialogue. Oh well. Some of the scenes on the stage reminded me of Children of Paradise, though the movies weren't similar at all. Plus Children of Paradise was a million times better. **1/2
