The Country Girl is a 1954 American drama film written and directed by George Seaton and starring Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly, and William Holden. Adapted by Seaton from Clifford Odets’ 1950 play of the same name, the film is about an alcoholic has-been actor/singer struggling with the one last chance he has been given to resurrect his career. Seaton won the Academy Award for Best Writing, Adapted Screenplay. It was entered in the 1955 Cannes Film Festival.
Grace Kelly won the Academy Award for Best Actress for the role, which previously had earned Uta Hagen her first Tony Award in the play’s original Broadway production. The role, a non-glamorous departure for Kelly, was as the alcoholic actor’s long-suffering wife.
