Review of Ragtime (1981) by Dirk S — 17 Jan 2010
How a great director like Milos Foreman let's some of the painful performances in this film slide, I do not know. And even though some of the performances were substantial (Coalhouse Walker Jr., Younger Brother), Ragtime does a good job of bringing E.
L. Doctorow's masterpiece to life and is embellished with a star-studded cast, it fails to impact you like the book and play do.
