A wonderful movie…"A woman is only beautiful if she is loved "
I had some tears in my eyes at the end I must admit. And I love Bette no matter what. Claude Rains was magnificent.
This is the most horrendous distortion of a truly wonderful novel. Bette's hair and makeup are hideous, and that high-pitched fake voice is a huge mistake. And yet, it remains entertaining every time l see it. Such is the power of a compelling actress even when she overacts to the high heavens.
This is an outstanding movie, very talented cast and excellent plot..
Yes, one of my faves, however they edited a few key moments in this you tube edition. too bad.
