butterfly. She has a hauteur and an iciness, a sharpness, which is very unpleasant. A love scene with her....impossible! Now, you want to see a great Somerset film? Go get Bette Davis in "Of Human Bondage."
Cruelty? It has one of my absolute favorite scenes of all time: Bette begins a soliloquy: "You? Yooooou!?..."
Still, I'll see "Being Julia" just because Bening is at least intelligent, which is an attribute one almost searches for in vain in actresses nowadays.

Quite a good critic too.
