This film boasts a wonderful dramatic turn by a young Cary Grant. If you're of the minority who view Mr. Grant as a boring, overrated comedy actor, give this a watch because the great man can most certainly act! It's a very enjoyable romance, elevated by a sparkling cast. The story is very heartwarming, but also quite the tearjerker. The record player transitions between scenes are quite a lovely touch, and good special effects for its time. Good family viewing.
