The Women 1939 - Mimi Olivera

[@daneb.mcfadhen9896]

Boy, you won't see dialogue like that anymore. wow

[@TroglodyteDiner]

The beginning of the end of literacy in movies began in 1977, 'in another galaxy, far, far away . . ."

@@TroglodyteDiner Hey, compared to most of the things released in the past 25 years, Star Wars is like frickin' Casablanca.

[@brianoyler4777]

The wife is usually one of the last to know. Norma Shearer did do this role justice. Bravo!

[@stanochocki8984]

such dialogue-- superb and natural in style and delivery. In a film such as this one, even the minor character actresses are of such a superior quality and naturalness; that they make the majority of the current ones look and sound as 'stupid and dense' as many of their performances.

[@hugocarrera5765]

WoW... PERIOT!

[@TroglodyteDiner]

Oh my God this is where the Bugs Bunny scene comes from "My stars! Look at those nails . . . Monsters are the most INTERESTING people!"

[@hebneh]

I was just going to write the same thing! "My stars...if an INteresting monster can't have an INteresting hairstyle..."

[@donaldstanfield8862]

BAHAHAHAAH!!

[@prettypennyschannel]

"Now I must go and give an INTERESTING old lady a manicure. But I'll be back before you're done. La La la la." BOOM!!!

[@lukamilas8648]

Norma Shearers face as the story gets more and more interesting 😂

[@jaengen]

Norma was wonderful in this role.

[@SmidBeach]

I did this same scene in high school drama class, and this is a totally different interpretation from anything I imagined. Wow.

[@bjbinmke]

The actor who played the cosmetician should have gotten an Oscar.

[@travelgal8887]

That’s a young Mrs. Kravitz from Bewitched!

[@tamarasilver8764]

@@travelgal8887 Thanks for that, I thought she looked familiar.

[@akrenwinkle]

@@tamarasilver8764 The manicurist was played by Mimi Olivera.

[@RaymondHng]

@@akrenwinkle That's incorrect. Olga was played by Dennie Moore. She had an uncredited role in _Silvia Scarlett_ (1935) with Katherine Hepburn.

[@gablecrawford7873]

Dennie Moore was wonderful I know her lines by heart so good!

[@kiwi9921]

me too. LOL!

[@alfredbonnabel7022]

SUPERB!!!

[@huntress1863]

I've been looking for this! I'm doing Olga from the original play for an audition next week, and I needed some inspiration for her character. You have no idea how hard it is to find the right clip I need from this film. Thank you so much!

[@jamespickett2687]

The golden age of Hollywood 💗 How lovely my darlings!!!

[@MrCWells3000]

Nail Techs are the same now as they were in 1939.

[@wonderwinder1]

I can’t help but think of Bugs Bunny and the Monster.

[@drewdenning8243]

Superb!!!!

[@lukamilas8648]

“Don’t you like the file?“ 🤣 🤣🤣

[@akrenwinkle]

There's some confusion as to whether it was Mimi Olivera or Dennie Moore who played Olga, depending on which site you look at. I even wonder if they were the same person, which happened occasionally. For example, Phyllis Isley/Jennifer Jones. The actress having been uncredited didn't help matters.

[@RaymondHng]

Olga was played by Dennie Moore, not Mimi Olivera.

[@tharold8639]

Norma Shearer was wonderful as Mary. This is a great scene.

[@markrichards6863]

And you thought word traveled fast on the internet. I had a stay at home mom in the sixties. The gossip spread faster than wild fire. This is a great scene. The manicurist had one short scene and really chewed the scenery, completely stole the scene from Norma, who was a huge star.

[@gboo1918]

reminds me of my beauty parlour

MEOW meow! That's the best transportation I can think of.

[@JloveLamar]

Silvia is absolutely VILE fo sending Mary here. I always felt Silvia didn't really get what was coming to her in the end. She should've been cast out just as Joan was.

[@RaymondHng]

Silvia Fowler and Mary Haines are cousins.

[@JloveLamar]

@@RaymondHng I know that. What does that have to do with what she did to Mary?

[@RaymondHng]

@@JloveLamar Silvia couldn’t be cast out. Mary and Silvia are family.

[@JloveLamar]

@@RaymondHng The hell she can't. I wouldn't EVER speak to my cousin again if she did to me what Fowler did to Mary.

[@RaymondHng]

@@JloveLamar So you would rather have your cousin keep her mouth shut and let you go about your business not knowing that your husband is cheating on you?

[@anncohen6674]

What not to do if you're a nail technetium

[@markrichards6863]

Nah! My friend who cousin , who has done hair at a very high end salon says, the hairdo, mani/pedi isn't why they are so successful. They keep coming back for the latest dirt on their frenemiies. If the information I juicy a d fresh, the tip is proportionally large.
