As Seen On Screen

As Seen on Screen offers readers a chance to see film reviews for the everyman, without all of the clutter and nonsense fed to the average filmgoer. Plain, straitforward, to the point. That's our goal. We offer a diverse catalogue of which to choose from, from silent comedies to modern superhero films. Final note: this is a family friendly blog. We only review films rated G through PG-13, plus the unrated films of yesteryear. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, pull up a crumpet and enjoy. Thanks for your support!

Trailer Unavailable













     Miss Grant Takes Richmond
1949  NR  COMEDY  1h 27min
CAST— Lucille Ball, William Holden, Janis Carter, James Gleason, Frank McHugh
MUSIC— Heinz Roemheld  DIRECTOR— Lloyd Bacon

     Another ditsy performance by Lucille Ball is the highlight in an otherwise forgettable film. Inept secretary Ball is hired on by a realtor, despite having no talent in the workplace. What Ball fails to realize is that her new employer is a big time bookie. When she begins a campaign to organize a project for low cost housing, she just may steer her crooked boss legit. Some funny bits (mostly involving a typewriter) are scattered throughout this so-so farce. AKA Innocence is Bliss.
OUR RATING— **
