I am watching the 1930 something version of “Dracula” right now. It holds up surprisingly well. In fact I would say it is clearly the definitive version tho I liked the fairly recent one too.

Most movies made in the last 20 years are just awful. I guess my tastes vary from most but some that have been really popular just amaze me with how dreadful they are.

I enjoy watching movies she is in. And yes, she was very attractive.

Loved the review. "Cheaper by the Dozen" and "Letter to Three Wives" were also two of my favorites. (I'm an old movie buff.)

Didn't know her marriage was stormy. Still, she stuck it out as few do nowadays.

I always like Jeanne Crain as well. I think "Vicky" might be a remake of an earlier film. I don't remember everyone who was in the original. I think Laird Cregar was the menacing cop and Victor Mature the good guy who was framed. Cannot remember who the women were.

In any case, I'll have to check out "Vicky".

Another Jeanne/Gene from the same era, Gene Tierney, was perfection in the noir classic Laura.

I think she starred in the film PINKY, about a black woman passing for white. Quite beautiful there, also.
