I just saw Dark Victory/Bette Davis for the first time ever and holy COW! First-she's very young (it's 1939) and she plays a very sympathetic character! This is the film from which all other "unfulfilled girl who just completed huge life lesson dies" films came-it's the blueprint. Also, being this old, it comes with some very antiquated notions of medical ethics and relationships. What are some movies you had heard about forever or were classics but you were very, very late in seeing an appreciating them? Which are still on your list?
