    Is picnic a good movie?

    • Millie Owens: For once in your life, do something right. Ain't She Sweet? Picnic offers superior acting all around, some great cinematography, and a number of excellent scenes, including the famous dance sequence between Holden and Novak. The writing, unfortunately, veers between wonderful and maudlin, and the movie feels outdated in many ways.
