Review of Pretty Baby (1950) by Kathryn R — 11 Dec 2009
Cinematically beautiful, but (IMO) -- with the exception of Sarandon -- underwhelming performances. Disturbing subject matter, and Shields' pubescence was unsettling -- which was the point of her many nude scenes throughout Malle's controversial film.
Now a mother to two little girls, I wonder if Shields would permit her daughters to appear in such graphic states of undress?
