    I'm not sure about the acting criticisms, given that Stanwyck snagged a best actress nomination for this role. 11 years 6 months ago

    Stanwyck is one of my favorite actresses of the Golden Age, but she did overdo at times. Back then, her performance in this was on par with how her peers graded a great performance, hence her Oscar nomination. IMO, she’s best in this film when she’s reminding everyone else around her that she’s rich and in charge. Overall, I was disappointed with the film. There’s a LOT of exposition and a lot to cover.

    Not bad, although Stanwyck did some crazy overacting here. Plus there seemed to be more telephone conversations than a season of 24. 11 years 11 months ago
