Picnic film - Based on a Pulitzer Prize winning play
Considered daring at the time, it stars William Holden, Kim Novak, Susan Strasberg, Cliff Robertson, Arthur O'Connell, Nick Adams, Betty Field and Rosalind Russell and is sometimes cited as a richly detailed snapshot of midwestern American culture during the 1950s.
The movie was adapted from William Inge's Pulitzer Prize winning play by Daniel Taradash, directed by Joshua Logan, was widely popular and made Kim Novak a star. Rosalind Russell received critical praise for her role as a middle-aged, frustrated schoolteacher. Audiences reacted to it as a realistic, "slice of life" story. The theme song from the movie was a hit, a mix of the theme song "Picnic" gradually blending in with the old standard "Moonglow" (which was later covered by Steve Allen) and the soundtrack 33rpm Album sold very well, an unusual feat for a "non-musical,story driven" film released in the 1950s.
