About A Beautiful Woman
Father-and-son lion tamers, Rabbas and Léo share a mistress - Rosita, the " lovely bitch " of the film's title. She is as wild as their lionesses and, in a single night the father is injured and the son attempts suicide. Only when Rosita leaves the circus can things get back to normal.
Directed by Marco de Gastyne, A Beautiful Woman leans on a strong ensemble — Gabriel Gabrio, Gina Manès, Paulo Quevedo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1930.
