I caught "The Wayward Bus" today on television. This was a new film to me and it was ok. The black and white cinematography is very nice except for a few bumpy bus scenes and the story includes a cast of characters which are slightly developed. It's not a bad drama, not a lot of action or growth or surprises, but it did hold my attention the whole time so I will rate it a 5/10. This was the first film featuring Jayne Mansfield that I have seen. I thought she was fine in a fairly straightforward role. But the main relationship between the bus driver and the diner woman just wasn't that interesting.
