starstarstarstar
This dark and somewhat perverse melodrama stars Barbara Stanwyck as a wicked, wealthy and very powerful queen bee who gains control the small Pennsylvania town after inheriting a large family fortune. She's unhappily married to Kirk Douglas (making his screen debut), an alcoholic district attorney who's preparing to make a bid for mayor. What no one in the town knows, however, is that what's really keeping the two of them together is a deep, murderous secret. Read the complete review for The Strange Love Of Martha Ivers

Could that Birkin bag be more...

Could that Birkin bag be more mismatched for vintage-cords-and-old-baby-T's Rory? More importantly, why did overdyed crocodile skin score such high relationship points? Emily is convinced the bag means security. I'm not quite sure what Rory thinks, though who could believe she had no idea how expensive and coveted that bag really is? (Surely her mother once made some witty reference to proud owners Gwyneth, Madonna or Martha.) What an opportune time to tell Logan she loves him! (At least she didn't do it as she was hugging that pink monstrosity.) I'm sorry, but I'm just not seeing it. Expensive gifts, whirlwind trips, wild parties… whatever. The guy always has that something-smells-bad look on his face, and all he does is complain. Couldn't he have come up with a better response to Rory's three little words? "I've told a lot of girls I love them and didn't mean it." Charming. read more
