Bombshell, MGM 1933
Jean plays Lola Burns a film star who tries to better herself
despite her family and her co-workers trying to keep her down.
This film is so like her real life that it must have been a difficult
experience for her. However, this is one of Harlow's best performances.
She truly shows her comedic genious with lines clearly and quickly
quipped (listen below).
