內容: Mr. and Mrs. Miniver together again! exclaimed the ads for the prestigious biopic Madame curie. Greer Garson and Walter Pidgeon portray Marie and Pierre curie, partners in life and in their efforts to isolate the radioactive element radium. Madame Curie shines as brightly as the residue of radium that ultimately illuminated the night in the Curie lab. Nominated for seven Oscars (including Best Picture), the film makes science accessible as it traces the Curies' pioneering research (a california Institute of Technology physicist provided technical advice). Ambitious and enjoyable, madame curie takes its place alongside other meritorious works from the heyday of film biographies. Ask diehard movie fans and thev'll tell you: great scientists mean great screen stories!
