5.0 out of 5 stars Celebrating the Love Goddesses of the Silver Screen!, June 7, 2001

By 

Bubbles (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Love Goddesses (DVD)

This film, produced in 1965, is a wonderful collage of the many kinds of vamps, starlets, love goddesses, girls-next-door and sirens that have graced the silver screen since the turn of the century. See Theda Bara, Pola Negri, Lillian Gish, Gloria Swanson, Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Elizabeth Taylor, Ginger Rogers, Rita Hayworth and even the child star Shirley Temple put their own indelible brand of love on the screen. It examines how, over the course of sixty years, women's sexuality has evolved, and played itself out in different arenas in film. While some of the film clips are a little iffy, it is exceptionally well made. A pure joy to own if you are an admirer of any of the actresses presented, interested in women's studies, pre-code Hollywood or the history of sexuality in film.

3.0 out of 5 stars DVD just like the video, August 18, 2001

This review is from: Love Goddesses (DVD)

While most DVDs add something special to the disc, this one has nothing new to add. Both the video and DVD have some entertaining clips of Theda Bara, Marlene Dietrich, Clara Bow, Pola Negri, Ingrid Bergman, Marilyn Monroe and others, but, unfortunately, the cuts between the Love Goddesses are obvious, as if the producers have done a quick job of putting all the actresses on a list and then splicing from one actress to another, without rhyme or reason. That's a shame because the subject is interesting. Still, if you love to watch some fascinating footage and will forgive the sudden shifts from one actress to another, you will enjoy "The Love Goddesses."

5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I was looking for, September 13, 2009

This review is from: The Love Goddesses [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This VHS is just what I was looking for. I was looking for an opportunity to look at the great beauties of the 30's-40's and this fit the bill perfectly.
