The Bad and the Beautiful

Kirk Douglas, Lana Turner    d/ Vincent Minelli

Old fashioned potboiler about the inner workings of the movie business. Hollywoodized of course but still quite watchable. Both leads had intense emotive scenes which they pulled off nicely. Good supporting cast included Gloria Grahame and Walter Pidgeon.

This is now considered a classic of 50's era melodrama and deservedly so.
