    Grant films were truly fo an adult nature for the times. The stories behind the fims were often dealt with complex and some shocking issues. It's interesting how these films have kept their appeal even today.

    Superior soap opera with two great lead performances but even better is Kay Francis, a portrait in silky malevolence.

    I wish I could watch every movie ever made but I sadly don't have the time. I'm not interested in this movie because I don't think I'll like it or don't know enough about it to think I might like it. I may still end up seeing it some day though.

    It's just further proof that women will fight to the death over Cary Grant. And who wouldn't?
