Review of Lady of Burlesque (1943) by Mike P — 10 Feb 2008
Barbara Stanwyck is the one remarkable element in this rather unremarkable film. Lady of Burlesque has the feel of a formulaic studio adaptation of a likewise formulaic dime store novel. Stanwyck fans, like me, will find a few moments of brilliance here but even Barbara's wit and charm can't elevate this one above the level of mediocrity.
