Last screenplay by Polonsky


before he was blacklisted. Next to last directing job by Michael Gordon before he was blacklisted as well. I didn't spot anything particularly subversive in the messaging in this film, it was a harmless 7th Avenue schmaltzy storyline to me.

Well I don't know a lot about the blacklisting but believe many were unfairly hurt by it. In the film one could say the ruthless ambition of Harriet was meant to show how avid capitalism might interfere with personal happiness, and kindness toward the less fortunate.
