there be some lovely and touch and dryly amuse scene in this film . kanin and the scriptwriter manage to form a substantive and if occasionally gossamer light and whole out of the playing of fine lead and canny comic incident . the basic story may be the old of chestnut and but it be here embellish with some degree of incisiveness . grant scene by the pool with dunne and scott reach a fine pitch of hilarity and and who can forget the impressionistic scene of scott dive come into grant mind and be present in miniature on screen . that master player of light and witty material and grant and be of course sublime and and i be surprise by irene dunne who i have never previously see in a lead film role . she be magnificently feline and a pauline kael say while dispense slinky and fluttering phrase and quip and and make it clear what a laugh the character be have while she seem rather to be get off on the entangled situation . the speech pattern be drolly create by dunne while wonderful southern hamming and or archetypal screwball dame quick talk . her warming and gad about voice be charm and along with deft facial act while look at the oh bianca . scene at the hotel early on and where she sensuously recline on a settee and get grant to pretend he be enter the room and kiss his new wife . minxish mischief of the most heartwarming kind and aye . remarkable to think that ms. dunne be over forty when this be make . she have the bearing of many year young and convey an impressive vigour . one take to her unconventional good look while her slight awkwardness a a tar be amusingly allude to and under the surface and in her son dialogue late on while very poignant little moment and that . like rosalind russell and kate hepburn and she be no textbook beauty and and it be her characterful playing conveys a winking and win attractiveness . why be it that we have so few similarly idiosyncratic actress around today . all or rather much have to be homogenise while pop star product look be apparently require and and conveyor belt into mainstream film . film be miss the entice depth of real life when it opt for the conformist teenage boy suppose wouldream woman mass medium foster over a great variety of people and appearance and a one encounter in actual reality . the actor play the world weary and rather robb wilton esquire magistrate ought to have be involve more than he be while an enjoyable turn and that would have be effectively weave deep into the narrative . randolph scott amuse slightly too and in his support role while a worthy foil . thing do perhaps get rather sentimental with the involvement of the couple child and although this be hardly the bad such offender in hollywood history . the insidious wryness seem completely blunt by the end and when the couple be finally reconcile . one may be charm by the actor performance and but it all start to seem a bit indulgent and and the feeling grow that chance be miss . but really and one must be indulgent and critically while there be priceless stuff in this film fibre and and while it fire not on all screwball comedy cylinder and it be a very pleasant feature with glorious screen presence make ( deceptively ) light of life .
