This comedy was actually released the same year as Rogers' final musical with Fred Astaire, The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle and, just as I noticed in Stage Door, Ginger Rogers was more than a partner for Fred Astaire and was more than capable of commanding a movie screen without Fred Astaire or...

The other thing I loved about the Wells character is his unspoken respect for the opposite sex...yes, he calls Margo "doll" for most of the running time, but every time Ira senses any kind of real danger, he does whatever he can to shield Margo from it.

The screenplay also implies that Miss Victoria's staff has been doing this for a long time and I had a hard time believing A, that they have gotten away with it for as long as they have and B, that Miss Victoria has never had a clue as to what was going on under her nose in her own house.

Kinsey shocks students with his frank and in your face discussion of sexuality but realizes that the surveys that he has his students fill out aren't always honest so he decides the only way he could get the proper answers he needed for his research was to conduct one on one interviews with people a...

There are things that I liked about Garson Kanin and Ruth Gordon's screenplay, particularly the Damon Runyon quality infused into the character of Mike Conovan and all of his cronies, but there were problems with the story that nagged at me throughout: There's a scene where Pat actually jumps off a...

Director and writer Tamara Jenkins has crafted a compelling and at times tragic story that is not an easy watch, but I got the feeling that Jenkins has gone through this because the film had a very personal feel to it...it seemed important to this filmmaker to tell this story, warts and all, perhaps...

I have heard about this film for years and had seen bits and pieces but never managed to watch the entire film from opening to closing credits and I was pleasantly surprised that the film had a little more substance than I imagined, despite the predictability of the premise.

Many scenes in the film are so poorly lit that it's hard to tell what's going on which was aggravating because I was so fascinated by the characters and the story that I didn't want to miss a thing.

The film then offers detailed accounts of the films that Cary appeared in and regarding his four marriages.

But more important, it was after this film, that Rogers decided she wanted to branch out on her own without Astaire and, incredibly, her next film, Kitty Foyle won her the Oscar for Best Actress of 1940.
