The ending is my favourite scene in the whole film!<br /><br />I haven't seen Dark Victory and Old maid in many years.... *time for a re-watch*Classic Maidenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06452165665779363139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575280877085021446.post-90242989250286165552009-08-27T14:16:24.829+02:002009-08-27T14:16:24.829+02:00Kate Gabrielle:

Chico Marx and Lucille Ball?<br /><br />Nicole:<br />One wonders what the meaning of having Brent in that role was? I almost suspected that he would come back from the dead, haha.<br />Yes, see it! Most of these YouTube films are in HQ, that does a lot to the experience.<br /><br />Kim:<br />There has to be more Lubitsch for me! I think I've only seen three of his films.<br />Yes, I can't help but adore Hopkins!<br /><br />Encore Entertainment:<br />Oh, I love Katherine Hepburn. Such a great, marvelous actress.<br />I voted on your poll just now!<br /><br />Princess Fire and Music:<br />No problem, want to share the experience with my fellow readers! Watch it in HQ, i think that's an option for Design for Living. Makes the YouTube experience much better.<br />Yes, I almost feel like re-watching it already!<br /><br />Diana:<br />Rehearsing film characters...? I hope. But many great artist were more or less insane, probably a necessary quality to make big things!<br /><br />Mykal:<br />"I won't see any doctors, I'm just fine!" Maybe I have a brain tumor? Well, I had some whiskey yesterday - I hear it's a good medicine for all kind of illnesses! (At least they said so in the 18th century.)<br /><br />Matthew Coniam:<br />I was one of those who had a little problem figuring out if Hopkins or Stanwyck would win - I had to reason about it! As I said, I think Hopkins' got the cat claws, and can cause wounds with fatal infections. But Stanwyck would knock her down with a straight right, and at least win in the short run ;)<br />You're right - Design for Living is close to my dream film! And I can't complain about exchanging one handsome man (Montgomery) for two (Cooper and March) - oh la la!Lolita of the Classicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03596876234508882958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575280877085021446.post-82327797353425217602009-08-27T11:07:13.307+02:002009-08-27T11:07:13.307+02:00Now do you see why I chose Design For Living as my...Now do you see why I chose Design For Living as my favourite Lubitsch? And why that Hopkins-Stanwyck fight wouldn't be such a pushover after all?<br />It's funny, because you went for a menage-a-trois story for your imaginary film; this must go some way towards being it!<br />Man, they don't make them like that anymore.Matthew Coniamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00302989527514886503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575280877085021446.post-65697277961838418022009-08-27T09:54:04.952+02:002009-08-27T09:54:04.952+02:00Still have a cold!

Thanks for linking to them on YouTube!<br /><br />I've heard in several places that Bette Davis considered Dark Victory to be her best-ever performance. It's one of those movies I can watch over and over again, and it never gets old.Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00797180553972324709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575280877085021446.post-66997006768957997582009-08-27T06:03:20.784+02:002009-08-27T06:03:20.784+02:00Yes.
