Green Fire (1954)

Best Quote:  You're right, Rian. I was thinking like a woman. I was thinking of my Grandfather and how he hacked a plantation out of the wilderness. And my father who made it his life. And all that's gone into it: love and feeling and pride. Things you wouldn't know about. Things you can't buy with your emeralds.

Grace Kelly and Stewart Granger star in this unremarkable adventure story about an Emerald Mine, an adventurer, and a Coffee Plantation owner. Neither Granger or Kelly have to do much acting. Kelly looks great and is well costumed, the production values are high and the action scene well done. But the script and story are nothing more than adequate.  Summary: An MGM movie that tries to get by on Wide-screen cinematography, an exotic location, and Grace Kelly's star power. Not bad- when seen on a 42 inch TV screen -but forgettable. Rating **1/2
