On Susan Hayward's Performance In the 1947 Classic, "Smash Up"

 

It's amazing (big shock, huh, me loving a Susan Hayward performance). She takes it as far as she possibly could without it being mawkish or overwrought. And that scene where she bashes the lovely Marsha Hunt is so jarring and compelling that I've watched it over and over for years. Thumbs up? Oh yeah.
