Kiera Knightly has surprised me. She was really good in Pride & Prejudice and I adored her in Love Actually.

I also really like Rachel Weisz. I think she's very beautiful, classic and sophisticated. She's also very endearing in all the articles I read about her.

Great film with a all women in the cast, no men. What a biatch fest ;D ... I think it was the only time Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer appear in the same film together.

Only regret is that the whole thing isn't in Technicolor. Usually I'm all about the black and white, but it would have been a great one-and-only opportunity to see Shearer in color. Rosalind Russell is a scream in there, isn't she? Love her catfight with Paulette Goddard! It was the only time Crawford and Shearer acted together, though Joan-- oddly enough-- appeared as Norma's body double in a 1925 silent, "Lady of the Night." Really wish someone would do a tell-all book on the making of "The Women," along the lines of "All About All About Eve."
