Bombshell

Bombshell is on TCM this morning. It is one of Jean Harlow's best roles and thought to be based on Clara Bow's life.

What it really does is give us a glimpse at one of the great talents in film who died well before her time. The film has great dialogue and acting. Franchot Tone, Una Merkel, Louise Beavers, C. Aubrey Smith, Frank Morgan and Lee Tracy have supporting roles. No matter, it is really Harlow's film.

It's not on DVD yet. Why the delay?
