Blonde Venus - What a ridiculous movie!!!
This movie was so frustrating, my God! I mean what possessed a character like Dietrich's who was nice, kind, good, motherly, loving, to just run off like that?? cheat on her husband! kidnap her son! out of nowhere, just decided to screw her husband whom she loved dearly, and for what? why? it doesn't make any damn sense!
then she swears off living any civilized kind of life, rejects cary grant at the end, and then the scene following it shows her being engaged to him. then, after saying numerous times how she never wants to see her son again, comes back and has cary grant do all the talking for her. then her husband just lets both of them waltz in and lets her see johnny. it just doesnt make any God damn sense, these characters are so f ucking annoying. they say one thing, very passionately, and then in the next scene, do the EXACT opposite.
this could of have been such a brilliant film, so emotionally involving, and poignant. but the way the writers and director took this film, and transformed the characters to wooden people doing inconceivable things was just baffling to me.
