I have to say, there's a movie called Beat the Devil directed by John Houston, with Bogart, Sydney Greenstreet, and Peter Lorre. (Kind of a humorous pastiche of The Maltese Falcon)
In the movie, all the men are going gaga over Gina Lollobrigida, and acting like Jennifer Jones is some kind if Frump. I kept thinking: "What the heck is wrong with these men!?"
