while this isn not one of miss davy very worst film and it be pretty bad . and it sad that in a revisionist fashion and recent imdb raters have deliberately over inflate the score on some of her film to make up for her be slight in the past or so it seem . for year and conventional wisdom have be that davy be a terrible actress and only get the role she get because her beau and william randolph hearst and buy her way into hollywood . this certainly be the image create in orson welles citizen kane . it be true that hearst do use his considerable wealth and clout to build davy career . with all this money and it not surprise that she make some excellent film and it isn not surprising that people get snippy due to all the extra attention she get . sleep with the man who finance your film be bind to get notice . however and despite this edge and she also make a decent number of bad film and i think we really need balance when it come to the score of her movie . after all and no rational person could believe that a of today ( 1/5/08 ) and peg o my heart and two other davy film recently show on turner classic movie ( the florodora girl and marianne ) deserve the exceptionally high score rank them high than such film a high noon and ben hur and the best year of our life and all quiet on the western front . in fact and marianne would now rank a the fifth best movie ever accord to imdb with a score of 8 . 8. consider most people out there do not even know who marion davy be and most of her movie be financial disaster and this be a serious problem . however and she be a much good actress than citizen kane imply and initially break into film before she begin sleep with hearst . what set peg o my heart apart from these two other movie and be that marianne and the florodora girl be pleasant little film while peg o my heart be in some way just terrible . much of the reason be the terrible miscasting of marion . while her french accent in marianne be cute and in peg her irish accent just sound bizarre not particularly irish . plus and and perhaps i be mistaken and but her continual use of the word ye make her sound like she should be do shakespeare and not a film set in 1933 ireland . also and there be a bizarre insistence that marion should be the consummate multi talented star so they have her not just act but dance and sing . the sing actually fit the script in some of her film and but here it seem out of place and seriously detract from the film . it just seem like you could almost hear hearst shout out see she be a great actress look at her sing and dance . sadly and marion just look uncomfortable and out of place in many of these scene . but for me and the big problem be the idea of have 36 year old marion playing such a youthful role . it be obvious that the character she play at the beginning of the film be suppose to be like the one mary pickford play in the teen and twenty complete with the pig tail and plucky attitude . miss pickford could carry off these role even though she and too and wasn not a girl any more . but here and marion have put on a bit of weight and look at least 30. no offense she look fine for her age but she do not look like a teen . oddly and with the million that hearts spend on marion career and he never realize that the most important thing he need to spend his money on be a good script and one that fit marion talent . believe me and i have rat several of her film very high ( i especially adore show people ) and but here she just couldn not help but flop this film be a turkey .
