Movie Reviews of The Women (Keepcase)
Movie Review: a classic in every sense of the word
Summary: 5 Stars
My mother introduced me to this film when I was a grown woman myself. We sat there in her living room reveling in this wholly woman's experience. This is not a "chick-flick." It's a fully-realized expresssion of women's lives and circumstances. And what a revelation that, back then, a film was made without so much as a man's voice! Amazing.
Summary of The Women (Keepcase)
Be careful what you say in private. It could become a movie. Some gossip overheard by Clare Boothe Luce in a nightclub powder room inspired her Broadway hit that's wittily adapted for the screen in The Women. George Cukor directs an all-female cast in this catty tale of battling and bonding that paints its claws Jungle Red and shreds the excesses of pampered Park Avenue princesses. Joan Crawford, Rosalind Russell, Joan Fontaine, Mary Boland and Paulette Goddard are among the array of husband snatchers, snitches and lovelorn ladies.George Cukor, Hollywood's legendary "woman's director," had his hands full with the all-female cast of this 1939 film adaptation of the Clare Boothe play. The story finds a group of catty, competitive friends destroying reputations at social gatherings. The dialogue sparkles, Joan Crawford's performance as a husband stealer is still a classic, the film looks wonderful in Cukor's hands, and the Technicolor fashion-show scene is a one-of-a-kind Hollywood experience. --Tom Keogh
