Movie Reviews of Mr. Skeffington
Movie Review: 4 + Star Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Mr. Skeffington
Great movie & very sad as well it is real life events put on film.
Mrs. Davis is totally self centered and has the me 1st attitude down pat.
Mr. Rains plays his part very well and had he not been a kind and gentle soul Mrs. and her would be suitors would be out in the cold. I look at some of the current box office wonders of the day and see these actors and actress being just like Mrs. Skeffington & wondering where they will end up and who will really care once their beauty has gone?
Movie Review: The best of Bette
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm traditiionally not a Bette Davis fan but this film is so entertaining! Bette plays a selfish, self centered and arrogant woman who is also vain and conceited- very few admirable qualities. After contracting a very serious illness that dramatically alters her very beautiful appearance and the return of Mr. Skeffington from W.W. 11 Fanny Skeffington dramatically changes- for the better. She finally understands the true meaning of love and life.Movie Review: Bette Davis is Outstanding
Summary: 5 Stars
Bette Davis is extremely versatile, vibrant and outrageously melodramatic is this impressive film. Bette Davis gives a very believable over the top performance as opposed to Caude Rains' endearingly restrained and noble of heart presence as her husband ineffective to check her outlandish behavior. Davis' obsessive vanity and escapades consume her body, mind and soul to a devastating end of shocking reality. This is a good one.Movie Review: Not the typical Boy Meets Girl Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a love story. Bette Davis plays a shallow, spoiled rich girl with no money Mr. Skeffington loves her character, why, I have no idea. She marries him for his money. They divorce after a hefty settlement. Only after many years does she realize what a fine man she has lost. The ending is expected, but touchingly done. It's a classic film. Enjoy it. I certainly did.Movie Review: real tearjerker
Summary: 5 Stars
Other reviewers have done a good job of sizing up the plot of the film, so I am simply going to add BUY IT! You will not regret it.
The film certainly has some light-hearted moments, but there are other scenes that will tear your heart out. Keep the Kleenex handy.
It's so sad that Hollywood doesn't produce films of this caliber anymore.
