acsdoug D There should be a picture of the beautiful Joan Fontaine in the dictionary entry for femme fatale. She's wonderfully manipulative as she works to dump her husband and lover to get to the man she really wants. Good stuff. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/19/24 Full Review Steve D I found it to be an unintentional comedy. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/24 Full Review Audience Member Joan Fontaine plays the scheming title role in Sam Wood's melodrama. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member RIP joan. one of your best performances and hardly anyone has seen it Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The addition of Joan Fontaine is guaranteed to make any movie magical Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member A deslumbrante Joan Fontaine deixa a cabeça de três homens à roda nesta história de crime e traição com quase tudo o que um filme do gà (C)nero deve ter. "Ivy" à (C) empolgante do início ao fim, tem momentos de uma intensidade anormal, outros tantos perfeitamente antológicos, e, mesmo assim, anda por aí completamente esquecido e tem uma expressão quase insignificante no Rotten Tomatoes e IMDB. Todo o filme dos anos 40 com um tema tão sombrio e sem qualquer espaço para relief estaria provavelmente sujeito a este tipo de esquecimento. "Ivy" à (C) mais um daqueles quase-clássicos completamente mal tratados pelos anos e muito à frente do seu tempo. 4/5 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
