The Silver Chalice

 

My sister wanted to watch this movie because of Paul Newman. If I looked on imdb and saw its 4.6 rating I wouldn't have bothered. This was really bad and incredibly stagey and boring.  This was Paul Newman's debut. This movie doesn't show his potential at all and that's surprising considering that he was an excellent charismatic actor. He later apologized for this movie! Paul Newman plays a sculptor who makes a cup for the last supper. This really has a great cast Virginia Mayo, Jack Palance, and Pier Angeli. But you can't tell. All of their talent is wasted. I've always had a fond spot for Pier Angeli and wow she is gorgeous in this movie and that was the best thing about this movie.
