Rating:  - BETTER THAN I THOUGHT
I'm a huge Bette Davis fan but definately not blind to her bad movies.
I think she's horrible in The Star, pointless in Mr. Skeffington and wasted in June Bride and boring in A Stolen Life. Having said that she's quite good in this film and not too mannered. Nice to have religion thrown in the mix and forgiveness. I didn't like this movie when I was younger because it is so talky but as an older adult I can now appreciate the themes. And fashion being my primary love...well, the clothes are ... Read More
Rating: - A VERY DIFFERENT FILM FOR BETTE DAVIS
Winter Meeting is a film unlike any you have every seen with Miss Davis.it is the story of an introverted New England poetess who meets a Navy hero at a dinner in New York.Despite their obvious differences, something clicks and they gravitate towards each other, more out of loneliness than anything else, atleast at first. Miss Davis is just superb in a very different and difficult role and James Davis is also just fine as the lonely and confused young man.Their many scenes together are talky ... Read More
Rating:  - NOT BETTE'S BEST
I cannot add anything to the plot synopses detailed here by other reviewers.All I have to say about this film is that it is indeed worth a look, if simply to see Bette Davis past her prime years at Warner Bros.
The film is talky and if you can sit through it all in one sitting without snoozing from time to time....(I had to watch it four times before I could see it all .....)....you are a great Bette Davis fan and my hat is off to you!
This film does have its memorable moments ... Read More
Rating: - A DAVIS CURIO.
Based upon a novel by Ethel Vance, this movie has long been hailed as a "turkey" and the "talkiest piece of 1948". WINTER MEETING however, if anything, confirmed Davis as the best actress of her time. In her imperious moments, she is mannered, but in her quieter moments, there is no one as relaxed or able to suggest a "thinking woman". She plays a spinster publisher involved with a naval hero (Jim Davis, later known as Jock Ewing on TV's DALLAS), a relationship likely to be futile, since he wants to become ... Read More
Rating: - SO SO FILM...GREAT CAST
This is a largely mediocre film with a story that is somewhat implausible. Bette Davis stars as Susan Grieve, a well to do poetess living in a very plush townhouse in New York City. She dresses divinely in black for all her social engagements and is articulate and low key in demeanor. She is a single woman in an era when such were called spinsters. She leads a well ordered life devoid of any romantic interests.
Enter a romantic war hero with the improbable name of Slick Novak, played by the boyishly ... Read More
