"s/wPass auf, was du hinter verschlossener Tür sagst: Sie könnten einen Film daraus machen. Was Clare Boothe Luce an Klatschgeschichten auf der Damentoilette eines Nachtclubs hörte, inspirierte sie zu ihrem Broadway-Hit, der in "Die Frauen" mit viel Esprit auf die Leinwand übertragen wurde. George Cukor inszeniert die ausschließlich weibliche Besetzung - in der gehässigen Story um kratzbürstige Geplänkel und Allianzen leben die Prinzessi ..."
"While it's been said that costars Leslie Howard and Norma Shearer are both too old and too lethargic to portray Shakespeare's star-crossed lovers in this Irving Thalberg production, one can have a good time with this film by simply basking in their star presence and enjoying the breadth of the play's adaptation. The opportunity for pageantry affords some lavish sets--typical of Thalberg and director George Cukor--in this 1936 movie, and ..."
"Women, The (DVD)Be careful what you say in private. It could become a movie. Some gossip overheard by Clare Boothe Luce in a nightclub powder room inspired her Broadway hit that’s wittily adapted for the screen in The Women. George Cukor directs an all-female cast in this catty tale of battling and bonding that paints its claws “Jungle Red” and shreds the excesses of pampered Park Avenue princesses. Joan Crawford, Rosalind Russell, Joan ..."

"Ernst Lubitsch brought his famous touch to this sentimental romantic drama, a famous operetta about a young prince who falls in love with a commoner. A kindly tutor (Jean Hersholt) effectively raises the boy in a splendorous kingdom of rolling hills and vast forests while his distant father rules in the cold, tradition-bound palace. When he turns 18, Prince Karl Heinrich (Ramon Novarro) is sent to Heidelberg for an education, in more wa ..."
"George Cukor, Hollywood's legendary "woman's director," had his hands full with the all-female cast of this 1939 film adaptation of the Clare Boothe play. The story finds a group of catty, competitive friends destroying reputations at social gatherings. The dialogue sparkles, Joan Crawford's performance as a husband stealer is still a classic, the film looks wonderful in Cukor's hands, and the Technicolor fashion-show scene is a one-of- ..."
"A nominee for the 1932 Best Picture Oscar, Smilin' Through features Leslie Howard in the role of an embittered man whose fiancée was murdered on their wedding day by a jealous lover, and Frederic March as the lovestruck son of the killer--who will pay dearly for his father's misdeed. The film has a terrific cast, including Norma Shearer in a leading role. Quite memorable as one of the best heartbreakers (tearjerkers, if you like) out of ..."
