Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Half Misfire And Half Triumph
The much anticipated sequel to the 1957 box office sensation, somewhat rests in the middle of being a success and a failure.

Rating: - Great sequel to Peyton Place
Return to Peyton Place begins with Rosemary Clooney singing the beautiful title song,(she sings it faboulously, and she is featured here because her then husband Jose Ferrer is the director (also see his State Fair..a hilarious mess) the Franz Waxman melody that enhanced so much of the 1957 film, Peyton Place. Then you get a whole new cast, and Carol Lynley, writing a book about Peyton Place with Jeff Chandler. She and he are 'artists", and they have to deal with Mary Astor, a pillar of morality in ...
