Watch She Couldn't Say No For Free

Good movie but grossly overrated

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I do enjoy watching vintage films that feature actors such as Kirk Douglas and Robert Mitchum is non gangster roles, but it does seem to a bit stretched to believe Mitchum as a small time country doctor.Jean Simmons is a wealthy socialite who travels to the small town of Progress in Arkansas to do good deeds for the citizens who helped her out when she was an infant. She does this by sending money in envelopes to the townsfolk, a bit ill thought out as this brings in people from out of state who also think they will come into riches from an anonymous benefactor. Simmons should had listened to her lawyers who told her to build a library.Along the way she crosses swords, wits and falls in love with Mitchum's country doctor. I think the film does not really work as a romantic comedy, Mitchum is fine as the easy going kind hearted doctor, But Simmons comes across as too snooty and superior and the film is not that funny.

Jean Simmons goes to Progress, Arkansas where she rock and rolls all night and parties every day. Oops! wrong Jean Simmons. Actually Jean does do a little partying in Progress upon her arrival. Progress, Arkansas is a sleepy small town of 200 people and almost all of them character actors. Jean plays a spirited young rich woman who wants to give the citizens gifts and money because they saved her life when she was a child. Her gifts and money cause turmoil in the town. Mitchum plays the level headed town doctor. This may be the only film in his long career where he had to run a fair distance while wearing fishing waders. Come to think of it, Mitchum never really ran much in his films. He maybe did a short dashes in the many war pictures he made, but he never had to do a sustained run. Now Dustin Hoffman, there's an actor who ran a lot in his films. He ran in "The Graduate" and in "Marathon Man." I think he may have even ran a bit in "Tootsie." Anyway, I really liked the premise of "She Couldn't Say No" but I wish the film would have explored the disintegration of the town a little more after their economic windfall. It seemed like the troubles that Simmon's character wrought were resolved too easily as well. I still found the movie to be fairly amusing and entertaining.

This is one of those movies that is improbable but fun, with one of the most important features (in my opinion) for a movie - it is entertaining.Bob's pairing with Jean Simmons is almost as good as his pairing with Deborah Kerr, although the chemistry is different; perhaps more paternal on his part.I am, admittedly, a big Mitchum fan, but I won't buy a movie just because he is in it. The other actors in this film do a fine job and help give it a little more substance than the plot would have otherwise.If this ever comes out on dvd, I'm buying it!

One of three films where Mitchum is paired up alongside the young Jean Simmons. She really does like the spitting image of Vivien Leigh. Her dark, mysterious features make her photogenic and interesting to watch. Mitchum is just the tall, broad shouldered protagonist as usual.
