Audience Reviews for Bright Leaf

Bright Leaf is an amazing film. It is a guy from the wrong side of tracks who sets out to conquer the cigarette world at the turn of the century. Gary Cooper and Lauren Bacall give excellent performances. The screenplay is well written. Michael Curtiz did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the drama and romance. Bright Leaf is a must see.

Great, near epic movie. Not seen by many and more's the pity. I think it's Coop's best role ever.
