The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

An excellent movie about gossip, infidelity, and divorce, circa 1936 (from original play) even if the movie was made in 1939. But the movie was made in black and white, which I think detracted some. Except for the 6-minute fashion parade in color (deleted per director in some versions, but restored on TCM version), all the scenes were in B/W. But you can tell that most of the ladies are wearing great dresses that would have really stood out if the whole movie had been made in color. Also several scenes involving "Jungle Red" nail polish would have stood out better in color.

I liked this movie a lot because it really showed the power of women. It was interesting how there was not one man in the whole entire movie. The plot definitely kept me watching and I thought it was very realistic and had a great ending. Lots of women feed on the drama of others and affairs have always been a thing. I thought the main Character Mary was very mature and handled each situation perfectly, a very inspiring woman! Also, I love the style that these women wore in the 1930's! Makes me wish I was a part of that time.

this film(if you can call it that) is by far the most boring thing if watched, and I once watched paint dry! I know everyone has their own opinion and... art is subjective. this is the kind of thing you can find on one of those channels that pander exclusively to middle age women. to put it plainly this is a bitch film. a bunch of women nagging each other to death, usually over some man. if you watch LMN than this is you classic movie. but, if you prefer a conflict that doesn't revolve around trivial matters of the heart that are as complex as a straight line of yarn, then avoid this one at all costs. oh, I just know someone is gonna get peeved of with this review. despite it being a review.

This film was wonderful. It should the lives of women and how the change and adapt. It reflected the changing of social norms that were happening in the 30's and 40's. The main actress did a phenomenal job with her performance and her character embodies the change in how women expected to treated by men. They were not going to walked all over anymore and taken for granted. They had worth and value that and that the men in their lives better take notice or they were going to be left behind. What was truly amazing about this film was the fact that not a single male was present in body. There were male characters but you don't see their faces or here their faces. Having an all lady cast was great to better show that they were the focus of this film not the men. Men played a role but the women were the focus. The film did a great job in showing the different roles of women and developed the characters very well. The cast was great. The were quick and showed the intelligence and sass and power of a women and her words. The film was a crucial film in the history of cinema because of how successful it was of a all lady cast and in showing the change in social norms and roles of ladies.
