    Loved this film. Ann Harding was such a wonderful actress and so very beautiful. The film was made in 1929 when short, bobbed hair was all the fashion and yet, here she is, with her long, silky hair. An intelligent actress who, unfortunately, is underrated today.
    Thank you for sharing the film.

      Miriana727 Bobbed hair was in fashion since the mid-to-late 1910s, only in the 1920s it got more popular. 😃

      The general public wouldn't know her today so she can't be underrated .

      It's not as if anyone talks about her today so how can she be underrated?How could you know who underrated her?

      Ann never cared about being in fashion. She notoriously showed up to movie premieres and events sans makeup, no fancy hair styles, and was unusually casual for the time off camera. A gossip columnist once called her the worst dressed woman she ever saw in her life. Ann didn’t worry about what anyone thought. She was a naturally regal woman. She was also the first major female star to join the screen actors guild, and was staunchly anti-racist. Ann joined the NAACP in 1934. She was quite a woman.

    What a great and eternal absolute truth in the beginning “I love my husband and I refuse to hurt him”
    How great our nation began with these absolute truths in marriage and living. With morals integrity honesty and commitment!

    My Grandmother idolized Ann Harding. She was a teenager in the late 1920s. She once told me she would wear tight fitting undergarments to flatten her chest, so her silhouette, while wearing the fashion of the day was as lovely as Ann's. Can you imagine! 😂

      The 1920s was a time of cultural revolution in Europe and North America - akin to the 1960s. This revolution extended into fashion, with women of the younger generation determined to reject what they saw as the heavier, restrictive, confining clothing styles of their mothers and grandmothers. They envied the freedom with which men were able to live their lives, and openly pursued it for themselves. Androgynous styling and masculine tailoring became a highly pervasive influence in women's fashion, and they scandalized the older generations by wearing pants, cutting their hair in very short styles, eliminating previously de riguer undergarments (e.g., corsets, girdles, brassieres) & adopting dress styles that resembled lingerie (e.g., the chemise). The style was to eliminate telltale traces of the underlying female figure, and, to that end, many younger women donned chest binders to actually flatten their breasts.

    Love Ann Harding she was underrated as an actress. My favorite is Myrna Loy. Really enjoyed her movies. Acted right through the 60's. But Ann Harding would let you in her characters. I like Vera Kessler here. 1929. First talkies of film. Glad we have these old movies!

    Ann had such a beautifully modulated voice that she could quote the phone book and make it sound magical. Harding was such a classy lady who needs to be re-visited by young film fans today.

    They understood in these films, the elegance of line, cut and perfect draping move flatteringly on women when beautiful fabrics are cut and draped perfectly into clothing that is luxurious in a restrained manner.

    Ann Harding was on many movie magazine covers in the early 1930's and was loved by the public. She then received an Academy Award nomination for her performance in Holiday. Her diction was probably the best of any Actress in Hollywood. She maintained a long career, although there were long absences in between her films, television and broadway appearances. She had a warm graciousness about herself which is quite obvious in this very early talking picture. John Loder who later married Hedy Lamarr was also quite good in his part, almost equal and similar to the part he played as the husband of Miriam Hopkins in "Old Acquaintance" 10 years later.

    Ann Harding had such a delicate, winsome way about her. A touch of sadness about her characterizations in various movies. I would have loved to have seen her get more recognition of her great talents.

    Way back in late1960s there came the natural look . I recall it took the same effort cosmetically to achieve the so called natural look...Ann Hardings beauty is reminiscent of that time... she really was unique and in every role for 20 years she always had the same look.....❤️

      I'm 72, and when I started seeing my first boyfriend, we wrote letters to one another . It was all very innocent because we were very young, but my mother said to me, "Be careful what you put down on paper because one day it may be used against you ." Wise words indeed.

    At the time of this film, Ann Harding was married to one of the male leads, Harry Bannister. In 1932 they would divorce and the custody of their child would lead to a conflict. Ann Harding moved to England at that time (mid-late-30s). They were both into airplanes while married.

    Not murder, but self defense.
    She had a right to protect and defend herself against kidnapping, rape and blackmail.
    He was preventing her from leaving and that is kidnapping and is a federal offense.
    She has a right to freedom of travel, or movement.

  • @gingermurray
    @gingermurray Před 5 měsíci +1

    Ann hated being a celebrity and also hated giving interviews, which made her unpopular with the press She disliked Hollywood and once said: "I loathed the stupidity in the handling of the material in Hollywood." And about the studio system she commented: "If you're under contract when you're making pictures you may get the plums, but they own your soul. If you're not under contract, you have to take your chances."
    Ann's popularity would drastically decline after 1935. Audiences grew tired of her being typecast as the noble, self-sacrificing woman, and also critics were responding less favorably to her work.
    That’s why Ann is forgotten, (NOT BY MOVIE BUFFS) she refused to play the ‘game’.

    • @elodiecemoi3057
      @elodiecemoi3057 Před 4 měsíci +1

      If she sees us from the sky, she should be happy by understanding that the cinema fans recognize her talent, beauty, class and unique way of using her voice.
      The critics were negative in her late career, but 90 years later, we (the cinema lovers) still recognize her as one of the best (if not the best) actress of this period !
