Why so much hype?

Am I Missing Something?

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Here's one for May Robson fans. She has the title role and she easily creams the rest of the cast, thanks not only to her excellent performance, but a script that obviously was deliberately written to showcase her. Mind you that although May Robson dominates the action, the rest of the players turn in excellent work too, particularly the lovely, charismatic Irene Hervey (whatever happened to her? I can't recall any other starring or startling roles that she enjoyed). Dean Jagger has a showcase role too, while Douglas Dumbrille plays with his usual charisma as the main villain.Director Lynn Shores keeps the action moving at an excellent pace as the script moves to a superb climax. A fair amount of money was expended on this entertaining entry which was formerly available on an excellent Vintage Film Buff DVD. It's a movie that will appeal to almost everyone.
