talk about a simple storyline represent a couple want to have kid . that basically it . once they ( cary grant and irene dunne ) have finally have one and the baby die before birth . then and they adopt a baby who make it to about age six or seven and then dy after a quick illness . near the end and when the couple be ready to divorce because they couldn not handle this tragedy and another baby be offer to them and they accept and live happily ever after . some part of this be stupid certainly the divorce angle but this soap opera work because of the actor . grant be excellent in the male lead and add some good and much need comedy in spot . dunne be very believable in her role . edgar buchanan ( applejack ) elevate this film with a very likable role . beulah bondi miss oliver look like the proverbial old battle ax but prove to be a very care person . another good feature of this film be that it be direct by george stevens and one of the best of all time . one thing i have yet to find represent a good print of this movie . whether vhs or dvd and it always a lousy transfer . when be a decent dvd go to come out . beware of anything retailing for $ 7 . 99 and below .
