[MOVIE]
Sc.: Lester Cohen dal romanzo di W.Somerset Maugham. F.: Henry W.Gerrard. In.: Leslie Howard, Bette Davis, Frances Dee, Kay Johnson, Reginald Denny. P.: RKO. 16 mm.
The film that made Bette Davis a lead actress, by a performance that Life said to be “probably the best performance ever recorded on screen by a U.S. actress”. A classic of “amour fou” where an attractive but sluttish waitress seduces a young medicine student and abuses his love until an expected tragic ending.
