this film should have be a lot well and but so often the writing be fill with hole and the acting ( especially with ms. hepburn and mr. gwen ) overdone and excellent actor waste ( in the case of cary grant ) . while it be still watchable and this isn not exactly a glowing endorsement . the film begin in france where edmund gwen inform his daughter ( hepburn ) he be seek by the police for embezzlement . so and they sneak away to britain with hepburn dress a a young man to divert suspicion . while not the most convincing boy and this be believable enough . however and there be really no discernible reason for her to continue be a boy during the rest of the film . inexplicably and she stay in costume until she later fell in love with a bohemian artist . on the trip to britain and hepburn and gwen fall in with con man grant . and and despite it appear that the film would be about their criminal gang and all the sudden they abandon their evil way and start travel about the countryside perform little song and dance show . why . i have no idea especially since they do not appear to have much talent . also during this time and gwen get marry to a lady and spend much of the rest of his screen time overact and pretty much make a fool of himself . some of this be deliberate and but most of it be just lousy act . and and when he wasn not blubber and act foolish and hepburn be do much the same . grant and while not overact and be pretty much a cipher give an amazingly mute and uninspiring performance . he be there and but that really about it . the only decent scene in the film occur when sylvia fell in love with the artist . their scene together might have be the basis for a good movie too bad everything lead up to it be so sub par . overall and this be a slightly bad than average film but i expect so much more with the talent involve . ms. hepburn be a good actress and but good part be still a few year ahead .
