Loved this one. Just classic Bette Davis. I would watch her in any movie. A simple review I know, but what else can be said about Bette Davis?? She's the best!

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.

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.

I really liked this movie. I went into it knowing that Bette Davis wasn't the most beautiful woman in the world. If Warner Brothers wanted that, maybe they could have borrowed Rita Hayworth or Betty Grable from Columbia or Fox. Davis wanted the audience to imagine her as a beautiful, desirable woman. It is really long, but try to force yourself to stay with it, it has its rewards. It works in a feminist context because it asks, what do we want from women? Are women only supposed to care about their looks or are they supposed to have an inner life? Also, the accompanying feature says that Davis wanted the make up to make her look disfigured, and that it took bravery for a leading actress to appear ugly on the screen.
