Sydney Sweeney, according to longtime Hollywood producer Carol Baum, "isn't pretty and can't act," and them's fightin' words.
The fact is that Sweeney is drop-dead gorgeous. There's a reason that the entertainment industry and its assorted hangers-on plaster her image on every available screen, magazine cover, tweet, etc. In her public appearances — I'll get into her film and TV appearances momentarily — she embodies old-school Hollywood glamor, with her décolletage going all the way out to places where mere mortal women don't even have places.
Sweeney's good looks aren't subject to debate. They simply are — and I say that as a devoted leg man who prefers brunettes.
Honestly, I don't know whether Sweeney can act or not. I've never watched anything she's in. I understand that she's appeared topless more than once and, as a fan of that old-school Hollywood glamor, I wish she had left a bit more to the imagination. (It's also true that my 15-year-old self is/was going/has to invent/ed a time machine and travel 40 years into the future just to ask what the hell went wrong with me.)
I am, however, looking forward to seeing "Immaculate" when it hits streaming. It probably isn't for many readers of this site, but I have a longstanding love of Italian horror, no matter how uncomfortable, and "Immaculate" looks to be a modern take on '70s giallo.
That brings us to Baum and her one-woman war on Sweeney. Baum has been producing movies for four decades now and presumably knows a thing or two about the business. I'd be remiss, however, if I didn't mention that she has two genuinely great movies in her long list of IMDB credits, two inexplicably (to me) big hits, and tons of forgettable fluff.

Her face and teeth are OK, but suddenly the universe is flooded with drop dead gorgeous still photos of Sydney Sweeney, which do not tell 100% of the story.
I have only seen her in one small role - not enough to judge if she has the acting talent to carry an entire film.
Ms. Baum needs her teeth whitened. She can afford it.

Sydney Sweeney has a pair of assets and though big are already heading south.... I did the research.
The ugly hate the beautiful. The weak hate the strong. The dead hate the living.
THE 45 COMMUNIST GOALS AS READ INTO THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD, 1963
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”
