I'm watching Madam X starring Lana Turner. Constance Tower. Ricardo Montalban. John Forsyth. Jealous?

I was in a mood tonight. This movie has long been one of my favorites. Lana is older, and wanted to prove she was a real actress. She was wonderful in t his and breaks your heart. Of course it's a Ross Hunter movie, so there are lots of rich people. And yes, I paid to rent it. It was worth every cent of the $3.79 I paid.

Ruth Chatterton was better.

The last b40 minutes were very compelling and Lana was wonderful, but I was frustrated by the fact that John Forsyth never spoke to Constance after he discovered Lana.

After re reading that post I can see it being misunderstood. What I meant to say was that it didn't seem to occur to John Forsyth that Constance Tower would be able to fill in the gaps in Lana's story.

I've seen the film but don't recall Constance Tower. I do recall Constance Bennett making a return to film and looking younger than Lana Turner. What role did Tower play?

Is this the one where Lana is gored by the bull?

Is this the one where her daughter is secretly lacing Lana’s cosmetics with LSD?

OP here. Big OOPS! You're right, Constance Bennett. And my, was she a cold, evil, vicious woman. Protecting her lifestyle, her son was her ticket to enduring prestige and status and she wasn't going to have that unsuitable little gold digger ruining everything. She wasn't gonna just fade into the background and roam around her fancy palace as an old has been. Her outfits were gorgeous. So were Lana Turners' for that matter...until she fell off the deep end.
