Review of What Price Hollywood? (1932) by Tom M — 02 Aug 2010
Star is Born-esque melodrama. Very sharp humor writing in the earlier scenes, then some cool expressionistic filmmaking during the climactic sequences. Bennett is quite compelling, Hamilton channels William Powell, Sherman is a cookie cutter romantic lead, and Ratoff presages Michael Lerner in Barton Fink.
Always entertaining, surprisingly good throughout.
