I know Lana was the star and the one that everyone was supposed to watch, but to me, Ann Dvorak was the one I couldn't stop looking at. Her portrayal of washed up (and likely hyped up) model Mary was mesmerizing. She's a great, often underrated actress.
shareI agree. She is one of my favotites; as good as,if not better than Bette Davis.
shareI just started watching this and thought the exact same thing - I couldn't tear my eyes away from Ann Dvorak, which says a lot about her acting skills when she's the center of attention while standing next to Lana Turner. I'm reading her biography "Ann Dvorak: Hollywood's Forgotten Rebel".
shareI wasn't even sure who the actress was until I looked her up. She was wonderful in this movie.
