A BADLY DATED FILM
A contrived soap opera which wouldn't pass muster even today.
The only thing that saves it is the superb performance of Mary Astor in what could have been a one-dimensional bitch role. She richly deserved her Oscar.
BTW, I can't imagine two intelligent women fighting over the likes of Pete Van Allen. He wasn't worth it. Maybe if he was portrayed by a better actor than the boring George Brent, but... .
