The Heart is a Rebel (1958) DVD-R
Starring Ethel Waters, Georgia Lee, John Milford, Jane Withers, Scotty Morrow
Directed by Dick Ross
Print: color
Runtime: 83 min.
Genre: comedy
The main character is well-played by John Milford, and I found his work to be quite moving at times as the struggling family provider who is being pulled in many directions simultaneously (career, family, self-fulfillment, religious faith?); I think the high point of his work in this film may be the scenes in the hospital during which his character rudely yells at the 'saintly' doctor, primarily due to his character's extreme worry and frustration over his son's serious medical condition; his portrayal of unrestrained grief that follows is almost shocking in its vulnerability. This actor does a fine job, and his dark, 1950s-era good looks even add a bit of brooding depth to his character's difficult emotional journey.
