Reviews for Now, Voyager
Now, Voyager remains a highly narcotic, swoon-inducing romance in the Bette Davis canon.
...romantic and romanticized, sudsy and sentimental...a throwback to an earlier age in Hollywood when movies didn't have to be loud or vulgar to sell a point.
Consummate Warner Bros. melodrama, with Bette excellent as misfit and even better as reborn glamour-puss.
Now, Voyager (1942) is the quintessential, soap-opera or "woman's picture" ('weepie') and one of Bette Davis' best-acted and remembered films, coming shortly
