My Take:
Have you ever wanted to see Cary Grant in one of his very first films? If so, this is the one for you, it’s amazing how young he looks and what a great actor he was as a novice.
The theme of this film is loose lips sink ships. Nancy Carroll (Ruth) plays a very naïve and cute bank teller in a small town. She’s out on a date with Conny and as he tries to force himself on her, she flees, so Conny spreads vicious rumors all over town.
Cary Grant plays Romer Sheffield, the local playboy who comes to the aid of Ruth.
What I Liked:
This theme is still very palpable eighty years later.
What I Didn't Like:
Cary Grant wore too much make-up.
What I Learned:
The kids sure knew how to party back in the thirties.
