Stolen from Davis & Boyer
In my opinion, Barbara O'Neil's performance completely steals the film from stars Bette Davis & Charles Boyer. Her appearances on screen are just electric and she successfully makes the audience feel both loathing and sympathy for her, and is simply a much more interesting character than Boyer's long-suffering Duc and Davis's calm and collected governess. Unfortunately, Barbara O'Neil's star never rose very high, and she's mainly remembered for her role as Mrs. O'Hara in "Gone With The Wind".
