There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
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.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
I saw this in 1971 at college. It may have made sense to kids in the 1930"s, but at times the auditorium rocked with laughter. Have you ever seen a movie that was so bad it was funny? That's what this is. The basic story was passable, but its execution (I mean that literally!) was terrible. The dialogue was inane; the acting was amateurish at best; the directing could have been done by one of the youngsters in the target audience. The special effects were extremely low-budget, and primitive by today's standards. It made for a hilarious evening's entertainment, but not because it was handled by good comic actors.
