Two-Faced Woman (1941) Review

This film may look better now than it did 60 years ago. While I can't pretend to get into the mind of a 1941 viewer, I think I can see why "the official line" would go against this movie: it's a giddy comedy as bubbly effervescent as the champagne its sophisticated characters swill; there's no agenda other than to have and give a good time. So I can't go along with the fashionable types who pan this movie. Besides that, 2-Faced Woman is just flat out fun!
Come to think of it, the movie has its share of astutely observed social commentary, i.e., the extent to which people are willing to appear foolish in order to be "in" on a trend. Look no further than the ebullient, delightful supperclub sequence when Karin/Katherine who's never danced a step in her life ends up dominating the dance floor when the train of her evening gown gets caught under her slipper. She tries to stomp the bit of fabric free when a percussionist in the orchestra takes the rhythm from her lead --an absolutely joyous eruption of stomping ensues. And on the sidelines, the fools who say, "oh, yes, the Chica-Choca." Like they knew all along.
Garbo is terrific; her identity crisis is quite endearing. The ski shots are marvelously fun for snow enthusiasts. I wish there had been more time for Constance Bennett --she is priceless as the playwright/vamp; maybe its the glasses Bennett wears --those frames are back in style --that make her seem so oddly contemporary.
Summary: relax, and be transported back to a more glamorous era. We need high-class fluff like 2-Faced Woman in our times more than ever.
