At first, "Madame Curie" left me bored and unentertained. However, as the film goes on it gets far better and enjoyable. There's some great performances scattered throughout the film, especially by the two leads, the great Greer Garson and Walter Pidgeon. I found their love story to be charming, emotional, and romantic and I enjoyed both of their characters.
I also enjoyed the scientific aspect of the film. Because this film is based on the true story of Marie Curie, the scientist who, along with her husband, discovered the element radium and won the noble prize for doing so,there's quite a bit of scientific discussion that I found to be pretty fascinating. It's not often that classic romantic dramas contain a scientific angle.
The film is also very well directed by master filmmaker Mervyn LeRoy, and it is overall recommended for fans of classic cinema and science history.
