Summary
[edit]DescriptionLillian Yarbo in Wives Under Suspicion, director James Whale's 1938 remake of his own "The Kiss Before the Mirror" (1933).jpg |
English: Prior to her 1936 screen debut, Lillian–aka 'Billie'–Yarbo had won enormous acclaim on Broadway and in Harlem for her comic specialty dance numbers (sometimes likened to those of her contemporary Josephine Baker), earning the admiration of Al Hirschfield and future Billy Wilder collaborator Charles Brackett, among others. By contrast, the film roles, while obviously more lucrative, when not outright demeaning, afforded relatively little margin for creativity or self-expression. The two films that to some extent transcend that description are this one and Frank Capra's adaptation of You Can't Take It With You; the latter because of the script itself, the former, I suspect, due to the freedom afforded Yarbo by director James Whale. In any event, they are the two roles in which Yarbo got to display some semblance of the mischief and intelligence that had so captivated Brackett, Hirschfield et al. |
