5/10
Great Movie!!
15 June 2005
I really like the movie. Not just because my Great Aunt is in it (who plays Nancy Bowden) but because I think it's a really good suspense film. All the Actors/Actress' do a great job!! The movie is about Sam Bowden (Gregory Peck) who is a lawyer who a few years back had put Max Cady (Robert Mitchum) in jail. Well, Max is out now and seeks revenge on Sam. He will stop at nothing to get it. After Max kills the family dog, threatens wife Peggy Bowden (Polly Bergen) and terrifies daughter Nancy Bowden (Lori Martin), Sam Starts to take action. He starts a plan. He tricks Max into thinking he's leaving so Max will go for his family, but really he's hot on Max's tail. Well, I won't give the rest of it away so that you can see it for yourself. Like I said before, I personally think it's a great Suspense film. P.S. How old does Lori Martin (who plays Nancy) look? Well, actually she's 16!!! She's a very small person. Watch especially when Max Cady puts his hand around her mouth towards the end. His hand is about the size of her face!!!!! "Love You Auntie!!"
