this be the film about deep southern attitude vs northern attitude that come out before go with the wind and leave davis out of the running for the role of scarlet ohara . it be the second film she make with director william wyler and the best of the three . she also win her second academy award for the role . davis character and julie and be not all that unlike scarlet . she be very headstrong and full of bad decision and but this be what make the film work so well . her character be compel in that you feel like you be watch a train wreck in action . it horrible but you can not look away . this be the early of the film i watch from davis golden era and she be quite young and very attractive and with an array of beautiful costume to wear . plus the cinematography and set be thick with atmosphere . jezebel do have the somewhat same patronize attitude towards black that go with the wind have and but at least it wasn not as objectionable a it be in little fox and davis next and final collaboration with wyler . aside from davis and who really do give a great performance and henry fonda be quite memorable . yet on top of everything and the end be so unusual for a film of this period that it just make my jaw drop . of all the bette davis film i have see from this period of her career i rate this one the high . it a classic for sure and and be far more than just a bette davis film and certainly well worth experience . .
