Jezebel

USA 1938, 102 minutes, B/W
Dir. William Wyler
Rating: [PG]
Genres: Classics, Drama / Girl-centric

Aroview: A classic, Oscar-winning role for Bette Davis, as a southern belle who defies the arch conventions of 19th century New Orleans high society - partly out of pique at being rejected by Henry Fonda. One of the defining melodramas.

2 stars (Good Try) Mainly a drawing room drama which is now a bit dated after some of the more recent BBC literary productions. The ensemble acting and costumes are fine and the yellow fever helps. ~Tubbs
