Review of Twentieth Century (1934) by Steen T — 09 Nov 2007
John Barrymore is magnificent as the theater director who's utterly convinced of his own genius and taken to spells of grandeur and theatrics; in fact, he lives his life as if it were a melodramatic play.
When he manages to convince Carole Lombard of her genius as an actor and make a star out her, their egos inevitably clash. Great fun. Best line: "Go on, Owen... tell her I'm dying... and DON'T OVERACT!".
