a light on the subject, beautifully played by Nelson and Jeanette....
Rating: - Indian Love Call Classic
If ever a film deserved the label "classic romance," Rose Marie is the one. It starts out kinda slow, but gradually builds to a heartwrenching climax.

Rating: - Poignant and haunting...
There is poignancy at the heart of this movie. It's a love story and love comes at a high price. Rose Marie, like many Eddy-MacDonald films, is filled with love and loss, yearning and sacrifice.

Rating: - Entertainment at its best
Rose Marie has it all. Wonderful music, a great story. Good clean entertainment. As for acting, this is Jeanette's and Nelson's best. It is also the first movie Jimmy Stewart was in.
2 of my favorite scenes is when Jeanette and Nelson are in the canoe and he is singing to her. They other scene is she is hungry and he his cooking beans. The looks on their faces are perfectly acted.
Rating: - Has resonance even today.
Rose Marie is one of my favorite films. America's Sweethearts go to a Pow Wow! Wow! Being part Apache myself, it's fun to watch the strange way Indians, in this case Canadians, are portrayed in this film. I was not offended. I don't even mind that the "half-breed" character was played by a Greek actor. There's too much to like here. A little romance blown up to universal proportions is fun sometimes. There's always something new on each viewing. I hope we're not too jaded and cynical today to get ... Read More
