VHS Movie Reviews of Hasty Heart
Movie Review: One of Reagan's best movies.
Summary: 5 Stars
In the Hasty Heart Richard Todd gives a great performance as Lachy, a stubborn, proud young Scot soldier dying of kidney failure due to a wound received in battle in Burma in 1945 - days after the end of the war. Lachy isn't told he's dying, but the other patients in the army hospital - mostly English, with one aborigine and one American nicknamed "Yank" (Ronald Reagan, later president) - are asked to comfort him. The results are insightful, poignant, and sometimes quite humorous, as Lachy doesn't want to make friends, but still not knowing his own prognosis, falls in love with the nurse (Patricia Neal, of The Day The Earth Stood Still, In Harm's Way etc.).
The Hasy Heart is one of the best movies Ronald Reagan had a big role in, perhaps the best next to Kings Row, though he had bigger roles in less famous movies like Hong Kong, in which he had the lead as an Indiana Jones type. His performance here appears competent, at the very least, but considering the effective support he gives Todd to play off of, I'd give him much more credit than that. In addition to the quality of the movie as a whole, in my opinion it has Reagan's 2nd or 3rd best performance..
