Marlene Dietrich Selection
The film A Foreign Affair was ruined for me, by the appearance of Jean Arthur. Her performance was so feeble, it was sickening, this could have been a good film about the black market in Germany after WW2, but it turned into a rom-com as soon as JA entered.
As you would expect Marlene Dietrich was in superb form as a nightclub singer having an affair with an American officer. Miss Arthut complained she kept being upstaged by Marlene, it would be hard NOT to upstage her, even if you didn't try.
