Rating: - Classy And Spirited
This Film Wasn't As Bad AS I Thought It Would BE, Greer Garson Is Good, Walter Pidgeon Is Somewhat Boring, Edward Arnold Is Not As Good As I Thought He Would Be, Gladys Cooper Is Mediocre, Agnes Moorehead Is Great, Frances Rafferty Was So Good In This Film, And Tom Drake Had Such A Short Role Though I Love Him And His Acting. Perfect Film For Anybody Whom Is Interested With Any Of These People!
Rating: - Greer Garson and Walter Pidgeon together again
"Mrs. Parkington" was MGM's most expensive film produced in 1944 and indeed at this time Greer Garson and Walter Pidgeon warranted the lavish expenditure as they were the most popular couple in films after their smashing sucesses in "Blossoms In The Dust", "Madame Curie", and of course the unforgettable "Mrs Miniver".

Greer Garson was at first very reluctant to take ... Read More
Rating: - You gotta give this 5 stars!
This lengthy and not overlong? You'll find this epic entertaining throughout. My favorite moment is when Walter Pidgen shows Garson that fabulous mansion telling her it belongs to a friend of his, when in reality It was a gift for her! In my opinion, the best "married" couple in the movies. Don't miss this.
Rating: - THE ORIGINAL "MISS ELLIE"?
"MRS. PARKINGTON," the MGM film adaptation of the 1943 Louis Bromfeld novel of the same name is one of Greer Garson's better films. The story unfolds, in flashback, as the elderly Mrs. Parkington reminisces on Christmas Eve, about her life, love, family, and future. It's amazing how MGM could edit a multi-generational epic into 2 hours without diminishing the plot to a synopsis. Imagine squeezing the entire 14 seasons of the TV series "DALLAS" into a 2-hour film, as recalled by Miss Ellie on a Christmas ... Read More
