Steve D Smart script is a lot of fun. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/02/24 Full Review ashley h Our Betters is an okay film. It is about an American heiress who realizes her husband has married her for her money and is keeping a mistress. Constance Bennett and Phoebe Foster give decent performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. George Cukor did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama and romance. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review joe m Mildly amusing yet dated comedy of manners, "Our Betters" just goes to show the shortcomings of certain movies/plays that don't stand up to the test of time, even when based on works by a big-name playwright Somerset Maugham. The sets are sumptuous even if they do have that stage like feel of so many early films. The characters and their dialogue are rather cartoonish with all the archetypes here - the jaded older American woman in a loveless marriage, her younger, pretty ingenue sister bedazzled by high society, the hunky American guy pining for her innocence and then various fops and classy dames for fillers with what passes for witty banter. A period piece that is done to better effect in "Gosford Park". Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Essentially plotless but Constance Bennett is great, and it’s worth the watch for Ernest, the clearly queer coded friend who arrives at the end. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/04/19 Full Review Audience Member Fast-moving, sophisticated comedy directed by George Cukor.
