Excerpt from Harrison's Reports, 1935, Vol. 17 A bore! The story is weak, the situations forced, the dialogue trite, and the charactersunsympathetic. It moves along at a listless pace and fails to hold the attention at any time. One dislikes Rochelle Hudson because of her treat ment of Chester Morris - she had married him because she had been jilted by another man. He behavior towards him after the marriage is unpleasant in that she tells him to leave her, that she loved another man, and that she did not want to go through with her marriage to Morris. Although one feels some sympathy for Morris, one becomes tired watching him drink to excess in order to forget. The com edy relief is negligible. In the development of the plot Rochelle repents and learns to love Morris, but he leaves her and tours Europe. He returns four months afterward, and, realizing that he still loved Rochelle, calls at her apartment. He finds some friends there, including the man Rochelle had once loved. He refuses to listen to Rochelle's explanations and is about to leave when he hears a shout, Rochelle had attempted to kill herself by taking poison. She recovers and there is a happy reconciliation. The story is by John Meehan, Jr. Phil Cahn is the dirce tor, and B. F. Zeidman the producer. In the cast are Phyllis Brooks, G. P. Huntley, Gene Lockhart, Isabel Jewell and Ralph Morgan.
