humungus ◊ 2024-12-24 22:38	I fully expected this movie to be irreparably sunk by single performance, and that is just what I got. Surprisingly, though, said evil performance was not the work of the much ridiculed George Raft. Instead, it was the work of a wretchedly miscast and hopelessly inadequately made-up Ann Harding whose idea of a credible performance as an old spinster was to blink a lot. Thank goodness for the ffw button. Notably, this movie features Randolph Scott's final non-western appearance although, ironically, he still plays a cowboy. As ever, Joan Blondell is wonderful and almost saves the movie. IMDb strikes again: It's sad times we live in when the world's leading movie reference website can't recognize Joan Blondell when it sees her. Not that it recognizes the other actress either, since she's neither Virginia Field nor Dolores Moran. -- Last edit: 2024-12-24 22:40:42
