Many, many years ago I watched a Mexican soap opera in the 80's, which was made in the early 70's. Same story, Una Vida Robada, it was called. Same story, bad girl vs. good girl took forever to get to the point. But it was a good one with Angelica Maria playing both roles. But who can match the original? No one.
This is one of my sentimental favorites of all of Bette Davis' films. Why? Because of Bette's performances as both sisters and also, the wonderful score by Max Steiner. Each time I hear a fog horn by the shore, I remember this film and its score. In the days when this film was made, 'moving pictures" told stories and had great characters and performances not like today's films which are all concepts and marketing ploys. The bait and switch that takes place in this film could not be done nowadays
funny... the CW is premiering a show called The Ringer.. which i feel is based on this movie.. but yet no one who has promoted the show has mentioned it.. I don't get that ...
Bette Davis era uma atriz de talento e personalidade forte.Não era nunca citada pela beleza, como Rita Wayworth, Ava Gadner mas sim por dominar seus personagens.Se bem que ela tinha lá, um certo charme..
