Audience Reviews for The Rose Tattoo

Mar 03, 2014Anna Magnani is fabulous in whatever she appears in. With Lancaster it is touch and go. Call this one a middling effort. the film is likely held back by society norms as to what should and should not appear in a film. Overdue perhaps for a reboot.
-
May 29, 2010Tennessee Williams wrote this play for Magnani, so it's no surprise that she shines in this role. Rather than trademark decadence, this South focuses on the Sicilian immigrant experience. The script reads authentically and Magnani's performance lends further credibility to Sicilian views of family, gender roles and honor. Lancaster hasn't been in a goofier or over-acted role, yet his rendering is appropriately clownesque. For once, Williams brings happiness out of the darkness.
-
Jul 10, 2009Good drama, almost easy going coming from Williams. Magnani gives it her all.
-
Feb 04, 2009Burt Lancaster may get top billing but the real star of this film is the incomparable Anna Magnani. What a performance!
