This is a hard film to watch because you actually feel very, very sorry for Bette Davis' character in this case. She is a daignosed with a brain tumor, operated on, and it seems to be successful. But...the doctor lied and she only has months to live. How do you live life knowing that it will be shortened significantly? It is an incredibly difficult film, that was sadly released the same year as Gone With the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Wuthering Heights, and Ninotchka. Sadly, its brilliance has fallen in the shadows of these other films. What a great film, and another one rejected from the 1001 Movies List. Humphrey Bogart's role is also pretty strong.

This film is all about Bette Davis. She is amazing and her performance just carries the film. You find yourself just watching her the entire time. After winning Best Actress in 35 and 38 the only thing that stopped her had to be Vivian Leigh and GWTW. What a 5 year stretch. Speaking of which this film gets lost due to the fact it was released in 1939. Watch the extra commentary just on that year and you learn so much. The seminal year for film in classical Hollywood. The score to the film is so good and so understated as anything by Max Steiner was. His touch helped lend the film a sadness that just accentuated what you watch with Davis. Finally it was cool seeing both a young Ronald Reagan and a pre-stardom Bogie. A real crying film, make sure you have some tissues before watching.

A fine melodrama, containing a terrific leading performance from Better Davis, that is largely overlooked because of the many other amazing films released in Hollywood's pinnacle year of 1939. In some ways, this film looked to set up the austere-adult driven films of the 1940's, especially when you look at Best Pictures such as Mrs. Miniver and The Lost Weekend and may actually be more important than we realize, a film that bridges decades. There's no faulting the supporting cast either: Geralidine Fitzergerald, George Brent, Ronald Reagan, and even Bogey himself, are all terrific. (Bogart plays so against type, that it takes a few scenes to get used to him.) Beautiful, simple cinematography (the same cinematographer as Gone with the Wind) aid the film, and gives it a simple beauty that adds to the sadness of the story.

A truely great performance by the great Bette Davis turns this superior weepie into a truely moving human drama. Good support by Geraldine Fitzgerald, Humphrey Bogart and even Ronald Reagan.
