Barbara Stanwyck, Evening Star
Posted : 11 years, 2 months ago on 6 March 2013 04:58Like Garbo's "Camille", about a woman of lower social status loving a man whose parent disapproves of her. In an early career role, Barbara Stanwyck makes an otherwise unremarkable picture worth watching, her gift for being a sympathetic heroine and tough/cute quality already in bloom. As the best friend, Marie Prevost is shrill at first, lovably heroic at the end. The final scene feels tacked on.
