Tallulah Bankhead was the star; a very sophisticated, "Eurotrash" sort of lady but definitely MY kind of gal. Throughout the film she had perfect makeup, flowing locks, clever little quips and also the attention of the very attractive leading man (John Hodiak)......all while ending nearly every sentence in a pretensious "dahling".... :)
I have such an adoration for those old Hollywood actresses......the ones today couldn't hold a matchstick to the Monroe's, Hayworth's, Gardners', Bacalls, etc.....in talent nor in beauty.

Oh wholeheartedly agree with you, dahling. On the way home, Chris and I discussed the movie and Tallulah was one of my favorite parts. I love how old Hollywood spoke. That accent-which-is-not-quite-an-accent. Audrey Hepburn had it. Katherine Hepburn had it. I want it! :)
