Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The Barren Contessa
More a film of thought and sharp-edged dialogue or speechifying than plot or character. The shifting POVs across the Contessa's admirers define the sprawling and overlong narrative. Bogart's removal as a love interest diminishes the possible chemistry that might have ignited the film.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - fantastic Ava Gardner
What a movie and a great cast, Ava Gardner at her best. The movie still holds you until the last frame!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A very strange twisted fairytale
When a Spanish Gypsy dancer becomes a Hollywood queen,
the wolves come out of the woodwork.
When her mother is killed by her father in self-defense

It is the South American rich man who changes everything for

I missed this when it came out and never saw it play on TV. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I forgot.....
...how great this movie was! The ending surprised me (forgot the ending), and the chemistry between Bogart & Gardner touched me greatly. The dvd was perfect.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - OVER THE TOP
Usual Hollywood formula - rich boy finds poor but beautiful and talented girl, rich boy marries girl, beautiful and talented girl discovers that
rich husband has nothing working below the belt, rich boy finds wife and stable boy in barn together- and shoots them both...
