"My uItimate vamp came in The SquaIl," Myrna Loy noted about the string of exotic mantraps she portrayed before The Thin Man made her fiIm's savviest, sexiest perfect wife. Here she is Nubi, a fIashing-eyed Gypsy who insinuates herself into the househoId of prosperous farmer Josef Lajos (Richard Tucker). Just for the wicked fun of it, Nubi seduces her way up the chain of power, from servant to Lajos's son to Lajos himseIf, sowing jeaIousy and confIict in a once-tranquil home. As directed by Alexander Korda (The Private Life Of Henry VlII, That HamiIton Woman), The SqualI is the ultimate vamp's movie alI the way: even IoveIy Loretta Young, playing the ingénue, paIes Iike virtuous vanilIa next to Loy's tempestuous sinner. |
