@ChangeAba Oh, I believe there are mother's who smother and control their children and refuse to let them go. I was speaking more of the acting style for the mother. Maybe the mother's extreme dramatics was believeable in the '30's, but I do not believe anyone would believe a mother who acted like that today. Just my opinion, since I have never met a mother so controlling in that way.

@lovintap lol that's hysterical!

@ChangeAba Thanks for this Movie. Irene Dunne was such a quality Actress even in the 30's! Wow she was teriffic in this!

Wish I'd seen this before marrying the "dave boy" I did. Thanks so much for posting this, it was everything I've read it was and more. Love seeing Frances Dee in a meaty role, and Eric Linden is always a pleasure. They were a couple before Frances met Joel, so perhaps some of his angst over losing Hester at the end is based on Eric's own feelings.

Not one of those movies to enjoy or come away uplifted. Cringing all the way through at such a horrendous mother and how any man could believe such dramatics and histrionics. Different era, different perspective. Interesting to watch, like a train wreck. Dunn was fabulous. Thanks.

@mvies77 You are welcome. different era, but those kind of manipulative and controlling mothers will never die out. I know at least one living example... with a husband who believes her daramatics and histerics...

I can't tell you ecstatic I am at finding this movie. I have not seen this movie in almost 20 years. I used to have a copy of it on VHS that I copied from AMC. I remember I had Dangerous Corner (wonderful movie I wish I could find again), and Sports Parade (another venue for Joel McCrea) all on the same tape. I would have given anything to see the stage production of this play which Laura Hope Crews directed. Thank you so much for posting!!
