Body Language Expert Patti Wood Reveals the Body Language of Bette Davis White Veil in THE LETTER

One piece of clothing changes everything in a film. As a body language expert and lover of classic films, I notice and admire how this lace veil worn by Bette Davis in the movie THE LETTER is used to first to make her appear like an innocent bride about to be wed but instead shown as she is unveiled as a murderess and adulteress.
FYI I am not revealing the end of the movie, in one of the best opening scenes of any movie ever we see Bette character with the glare that earned her Bette Davis eye fame shoot down her lover.
