Oedipus Rex Movie Review 1957

Contained, and highly structured rendering of Sophocles' Greek tragedy, by the Stratford (Ontario) Festival Players; this production belongs on the stage, not the screen. Rain went on to be the voice of the Hal 9000 computer in Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey."
