A pity
28 April 2001
Feuding thespian lovers battle over a lovestruck woman in the man's life, a Shakespeare fan who has become smitten from the footlights. Farcial piece with too few jokes, too much bland patter and set-ups for laughs that never arrive. Bette Davis is given the short shrift in favor of fey Leslie Howard and girlish Olivia de Havilland, a terrible pity since this is when she was at her peak in motion pictures. Movie begins well, but falls off sharply after the first handful of scenes.
