Critic Reviews for The Purple Plain
All Critics (2) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (0)
A British production that was far more popular in its homeland than in the U.S. -- it was a box office hit in the U.K. and earned four BAFTA nominations, including one for Best Film -- it contains a typically excellent performance by Gregory Peck.
