    This is the film that got me into classics. Bette Davis is simply phenomenal, and the dialog is one of the best ever written. 14 years 2 months ago

    Chose this film just to tick off a LOT of lists, but ended up being really entertained. You can't ask for a better introduction to Bette, and Marilyn's cameo is the icing on the cake. 12 years 5 months ago
