A little melodramatic for my taste, but Grant & Lombard are wonderful, and Francis steals the picture as the cold, grasping social climber who refuses to let loose of her golden goose.

This movie is a tear jerker. Love outside a marriage that only exists for money and status. Carole Lombard is a great actress and a great fit fit Cary Grant. Sad movie as happiness is dependant on a wife in a loveless marriage. Thank you TCM for this little gem.

Meantime he has fallen in love with "Julie Eden" (Carole Lomba More
