Of Human Bondage (1934) BETTE DAVIS

[@fnuppyfnup]

Just as women should not tolerate abusive men, men should run from women like this. Bette Davis is an extraordinary actress.

[@jmbrinck]

Of all Bette Davis' performances, I was most haunted by this one. She was one of the most--if not THE most--extraordinarily gifted actors in film history. I'm deeply grateful to PizzaFlix for offering this and so many other stunning films.

[@jaf8771]

The scene where Bette said: "Every time I kissed you, I had to wipe my mouth!!.... wipe my mouth!!"... had to be the best acting I've ever seen by a female actress. That scene was dynamic...what an icon...what an artist she was.

[@vickiebunch5703]

Yeah! I've always had a thing for Leslie Howard since Scarlet Pimpernell. This is a great movie hope all enjoy. Peace everyone...Vickie

I have watched this movie several times because of Bette Davis. Apparently, she developed that Bette Davis walk very early on and the way her temper flares. She was so fantastic!

[@Blessedup69]

Stay away from toxic people in general is what I've learned from this

[@poetcomic1]

But Philip was a self-loathing masochist dragging his clubfoot through life and it is as if he came to Mildred to be 'punished'. He was toxic with self-loathing.

[@marymayer2282]

And she' was certainly toxic!!!!!

[@katw.6519]

Human Bondage...human love. All the same - how we need things and other people to live; how we want what doesn't want us. The lover and the loved. Classic cinema, classic story.

[@bethroesch2156]

I think that the people who save and preserve/restore these old films are some unsung heroes. Films are an important part of our world because it's a way to experience a tiny bit of history. Not that all films are 100% true and accurate but they can show a lot about how society viewed things, you can see their perspective laid out better

[@lisalindsey277]

Bette Davis not only accepted roles that were less than glamorous, she embraced them. They say this made it easier for her to transition from young actress roles to old lady roles and even hags - like Baby Jane Hudson. She should have won the Oscar for Baby Jane.

However, I'm rather intrigued by the time period, so I thought I'd give it a go. I saw the name Bette Davis and remembered that 80s song 😂😂. Anyway, I'm not even 15 minutes in and im loving it!

Thank you for this movie. Human nature to want what is not good for us. I could never treat anyone the way she treated him. That poor little baby 😭

[@wmperkins25]

This was much more intense than I thought it would be, great film and acting, just a big WOW for Bette and Leslie. I could see his bondage to her in everything he did and said, he could not be free of her until she was gone. I'm sure others have made the same (obvious) observation too. Bette was the perfect woman for this role, I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Bette Davis was never afraid to accept any difficult or unflattering role throughout her long career.

[@GiftSparks]

There have been 3 versions of “Of Human Bondage” and all of them skip over the wonderful first part of the book that explains so much about the formation of Philip’s character. The death of his parents, his upbringing by unloving elderly aunt and uncle, his years at school. I fell in love with this book in high school and have always been disappointed in the screen plays of the films. I wish the BBC would make an actual mini series of this. But back to this version- LOVE Leslie Howard and Bette Davis.

[@user-jl7ym4en5b]

I truly look forward to the book arriving this week. Thank you.

[@GiftSparks]

@@user-jl7ym4en5b Oh wow! I do hope you enjoy it. The first part was actually my favorite part of the story. Without going into detail, Maugham was a gay man who had to disguise it for much of his life (well, at least the first 40 years- then he because rich and stopped caring way people thought). Someone once posited that the character of Mildred in real life was actually a man. This explains some of the turbulence and anger of him never being able to attain her.

not only that she didn't win for this performance, she wasn't even officially nominated for this performance. matter of fact claudette cobert thought that davis was going to win, because davis's performance was so good. her acting in this movie was way ahead of its time.

His character Philip, although a brilliant artist and medic, did not get that heart wisdom until the film's very end--long after she had serially dumped him, verbally excoriated his fragile ego, madwoman ransacked his apartment, goring his cherished paintings and torching his money to pay for medical school.

RKO did not a ready-made roster of "stars", so they borrowed actors who weren't busy at their home studios to make films like this one. Bette Davis was just around the corner from mega-stardom at Warners, Leslie Howard was a major star in the UK who was also making his way into a similar status in Hollywood. Many of the supporting players also came from other studios and Max Steiner would take his musical skills to Warners after his 1935 Oscar for "The Informer" at RKO. A great movie.

Enjoyable, ironic and sad movie. This pandemic lock down has allowed my husband and myself, more time, to find and enjoy, incredible old movies. They certainly knew how to act in those days, there was something about the old movies, which makes them actually better than most of the movies today. Whether it was the silent films which taught them their craft, I am not sure, maybe method acting, whilst hailed as great by us all, somehow lost something? Perhaps only their acting to fall back on, no big action scenes or effects. Recommend these films: The Best Years of Our Lives, Sunrise: a song of two humans, All Quiet on the Western Front, The Story of Emile Zola and My Man Godfrey with William Powell to name just a few which we found to be outstanding

Wild and weird and captivating ! Takes the mind and imagination back a ways ! Beautiful, touches the heart of me ! My mother loved Bette Davis and so do ! I wanted to "be there" in this movie for a few minutes and KNOW some of those feelings, because where we are today is hard to deal with. I want to "run away" from it !
