from the comments I've read it seems there's some debate about how the characters were cast and and how accurate the movie was, etc. I don't know anything about the movie or characters b/c I haven 't seen it yet, but all I know is that if Gary Cooper looked at me that way, I would just melt ;)

VERY entertaining film, but not intentionally so. A camp classic. It's up (or should I say down?) there with NIGHT OF THE LEPUS.

always thought she was so good looking,esp. in the 50s

I always thought that this was the worst miscasting of multiple parts in any film. Gary Cooper and Patricia Neal are both about 180 degrees wrong for the roles the book created. And I don't think Francon was meant to be pronounced "Franken"..it's French, hence her father's name was "Guy", pronounced "Gee"...Hollywood totally screwed up this adaptation.

I remember in the film 'Dirty Dancing' they threw in some kind of a sly dig at some aspect of Rand's philosophy when the rich asshole kid held up a copy of The Fountainhead to justify his behavior. I've been intending to eventually read The Fountainhead to see if I could figure out the point they were trying to make.

how different Patricia Neal looks here as character from the Kazan's "A face from the crowd". As she was totally sweet and warm there now she's absolutely cold and bitch here. But always hot In both of them.

I will never watch this movie, I will only be disappointed.

Ayn Rand was disgusted with the her own screenplay adaptation. Lines were cut, especially from Roark's defense speech. Nothing came out correctly; not the actors, their images, movements, speech patterns, etc. But for as failed as the movie turned out, it still captures some of the indomitable spirit that was the total unyielding bitch, Ayn Rand. We need more people like that; everyone is just too socially acceptable.
