      betty davis ass

      Simple and clean light comedy.

      The hero and heroine don't seem to match, but that's what makes it fun.

      Those little bridges are handled with ease and wit, and subtly promote the development of the plot. For example, the kiss scene in the tunnel. The writer is really strong.

      The great performance of Bette Davis can also be glimpsed here.

      A good choice to relax your mind without spending too much time.

      Again, the writer is really strong. In those...

      Two such great actors can't save this movie. It's an underpowered comedy. Cactus Zabetty Davis ass? This physical condiment alone cannot support a story. It is rare that the classic Hollywood can rely on other departments to make up for its innate deficiencies, and the performance is lively and...

      BD poor ass hahaha. One Night Merry is a classic mode, compact, smooth and fun. The two big WB icons called, at least they seemed to be having a good time. As long as BD is willing to relax, it is still cute (I will also have a day when I think BD is cute...), and all kinds of physical comedies can be let go, but the temperament is still too famous to play the daughter of the nouveau riche. It is by far my favorite comedy show of...

      It's almost a remake of One Night's Merry, but the standard is quite far from it. Bette Davis is still pretty, but Cagney is a little bit. . . Not upright enough? This pair looks just like John Wayne and Ginger Rogers kissing, can't it be...

    • Steve Collins: This is Californie, they were married by a justice of the peace from Nevada, so legally they're not married.

      Lucius K. Winfield: Well if they're not married, that's fine.

      Steve Collins: But they THINK they're married! And they're flying back to Los Angeles for their honeymoon!

      Lucius K. Winfield: They think they are and they're not?

      [laughs]

      Lucius K. Winfield: That's the funniest thing I've heard in years! They think they are and they're not! And they've gone back for their honeymoon?

      [stops laughing]

      Lucius K. Winfield: What am I laughing about? That's my daughter.
