Weeeeeee! I’m going to have my portait done!

After watching the first 50 minutes of “Portrait of Jennie” I can’t help but think how ridiculous the movie was.  The movie won the Oscar for Best Special Effects and was nominated for Best Cinematography and I respect that.  I’m sure for 1948 the techniques used in the movie were considered very good. However, the acting of the female role “Jennie” kind of ruined the experience for me.  I though that the character of Ebel was more than fair at his role, but I just feel that so far in the movie Jennifer Jones who plays Jennie, has so far brought the movie down.
