Editorial Reviews:

Robert Mitchum and Marilyn Monroe are abandoned by a bad guy (Rory Calhoun) who steals Mitchum's horse, forcing them to travel down a raging river (along with Mitchum's son) on a raft. The three refugees, all of them living troubled lives to begin with, have to face the rapids together, and director Otto Preminger's allegory for individual salvation through unity becomes a stirring family drama. This 1954 film features Monroe at her golden peak, though not quite at the apex of her sexual iconography. The result is that she gets to play a character whose beauty is not really part of the story line, a character many other actresses might have played. --Tom Keogh

Summary: OTTO PREMINGER, OPUS 19
Comment: ***1/2 1954. Directed by Otto Preminger. A singer, a farmer and his son journey down a river while Indians are following them. Imposed by the 20th century Fox producer Darryl Zanuck on Preminger, RIVER OF NO RETURN is an entertaining film but may disappoint the fan of the great director who'll search in vain the shadow of his personal obsessions in this film. The songs performed by a superb Marilyn or Robert Mitchum performance, taciturn as usual, could nonetheless lead you to add this DVD to your library. Recommended.

Summary: River uf No return DVD
Comment: I was absolutely amazed at this dvd, it was so long since I had seen it as teenager, it brought back many memories of days gone by. It makes one feel certainly older but the movie was just as wonderful as before. One never forgets Marilyn Monroe, Robert Mitchum & Rory Calhoun, we all should watch more of these older movies it gives you a lift. Take the time and just do it!!!! You will be glad you did!!!! Thanks Amazon!!
