SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

bill-790 Another reviewer used the word "trite" to characterize the plot of this film. Amen to that! As for the film as a whole? How about lame? Really lame! Since this was a 1940s Warner Brothers production featuring several of that studio's stalwart players, I had high hopes when I saw it for the first, and almost certainly ONLY, time. But, really, this is a silly story that is hardly ever funny and simply makes everyone involved look foolish. (Butterfly McQueen absolutely sobs her way through this movie. Makes you wish someone had taken her apron and gagged her with it!) I love the WB product of the 1940s, but this is really a let down. Don't expect anything like "Christmas in Connecticut"!

gaynor.wild In this 1941 comedy, we are presented with two intelligent, beautiful women who are seriously smitten with a man who can hardly open his mouth without lying. The story ends with a major lie, and she accepts him. Either women in '41 were much more stupid or forgiving than today, or somehow people then thought that lying was cute and funny. The movie is terrible, and any women who are attracted to this man should be sentenced to marrying a serial liar.Dennis Morgan was a familiar figure in the '40's, and was used to comedies. But Morgan's role in this movie is a little out of character, in his being a serial philanderer and a chronic liar. It's not difficult to see his appeal on short notice, but any woman who got to know him should have been repulsed.

Robert Gold As a fan of Rita Hayworth, this is the only reason I wanted to watch this movie. She is in fine form, as are the all the actors. It's just such an insipid story that it bored me. I could not wait for it to be over.I didn't like Rickey (Morgan) since he is such a womanizer. I wondered why would Rita want him after discovering what a player he is. I also wondered why Sue (Oberon) would want him again. I guess it's me: I just don't see why those two smart women would each want a man like that.It's always fun to watch Hattie McDaniel and Butterfly McQueen, but they too often played the same roles over and over and over. Anyway, view for it Rita, but don't expect a great movie. Check your brain at the door.

steveareno I absolutely loved this story!Rita Hayworth,Merle Oberon and Dennis Morgan are energetic and entertaining throughout this whole film.Ralph Bellamy doesn't get the girl,but he's great anyway.Merle Oberon once commented that she thought this movie "was a real dud..I hate it!"She conceded that her children did like it.I thought it was wonderful and I love when Dennis ties Merle's foot to something on the pier and after struggling to get away...can't budge!She falls over into the water and catches a cold...which leads to Morgan and Bellamy arguing over who gets Merle.You'll have to watch this film to find out what happens!
