    ★★★½

    I thought I would hate this film. But I didn't realize it was going to be a traditional teen film, with all of the tropes of films I loved when I was a kid. Definitely worth watching if you're looking for a popcorn film.

    Our Modern Maidens

    ★★★½

    Joan Crawford may have slept her way to the top, but she had to have had some talent based on the length of her career. Our Modern Maidens was one of her first sound films, and she steals almost every scene she's in. Plus, it's pre-code, so there is illegitimate children and slutty behavior. What more could you ask for?

    Giving Anna Karenina a happy ending is unforgivable. Until you remember that Anna is played by Garbo. And doesn't Garbo deserve a happy ending sometimes?

    It may be terrible, but if it wasn't for this film, we wouldn't have Drew Barrymore...
