About this product

Product Information

In one of the last films before his death in 1957, Humphrey Bogart plays washed-up film director Harry Dawes, who sees another chance at success when he meets Spanish dancer Maria Vargas (Ava Gardner) and recognizes her star potential. Harry's willingness to let Maria keep her independence, and his steadfast character, wins him her undying friendship; the two weather the Hollywood seas, made stormy by Maria's own tempestuous spirit and the greedy nature of the film business. Maria's final break from Hollywood throws her into the arms of a Prince Charming whose secrets lead her down a destructive path. Impatience with Hollywood is evident in every line of director-writer Joseph L. Mankiewicz's dialogue (as in the unforgettable ALL ABOUT EVE), but he carefully plants the seeds of Maria's decline in her character rather than simplistically painting her fate as a reaction to fame. Bogart, in an role atypical for him of platonic friend to his female costar, is the touchstone of the movie and its most sympathetic character, while Gardner's eyes snap with passion as she searches for her fairy-tale ending.

    One of Bogie's best!

    The Barefoot Contessa is a favorite film of mine. One of the better color pictures featuring Humphrey Bogart and Ava Garner. The plot is explosive and the first time I saw it, it really stunned me. Just never saw that coming. The set is fascinating and the characters are memorable. One of Bogie's finest, and I've seen most of his major films. Any fan of Humphrey Bogart or Ava Gardner will enjoy this cinematic treasure in their personal library.

  • Great Classic and one of Bogarts lasts

    In this movie The Barefoot Contessa - not to be confused with the food expert with the tv show of the same name, this movie Humphrey Bogart plays a director who helps a dancer (Ava Gardner) become famous. They both become very close friends until Maria (Ava Gardner) gets very greedy with Hollywood. She falls in love with moves into her own self destruction. A great movie for your collection.
