Zaza (1938)
ZaZa is a forgotten movie from the silver screen, and I don’t know why. Perhaps it’s the silly title. If it was named “Never Her Own” or “Meant to Be Loved” or something equally catchy and memorable, it might have stood a greater chance. Claudette Colbert plays the title character, a performer with a French theater. She may be beautiful and in a disreputable profession, but she still wants to be treated with respect. She wants to find a decent man and fall in love and get married. When she meets Herbert Marshall, all her dreams start to come true.
If you’re a fan of Claudette, don’t miss this drama. She’s wonderful in it, nearly winning a Rag Award for her powerful performance. Helen Westley is also surprisingly good, playing against type as a drunken rag woman – also Claudette’s mother. Check this one out on a rainy evening and bring out your Kleenex boxes. You’ll get to see a beautiful woman in beautiful clothes – and the story is interesting, too!
