This is a very sentimental, sappy, but realistic drama of a young couple. It's good, but I'm not a big fan of the film, although I loved Grant in it.
Such a sad-y! My biggest problem with this film was the time passage in records. Cutting back to Irene Dunne and all she did was change records, circle into "a few years" later deal and it got old. There are better ways to tell passage of time. That aside, Cary Grant's cracking v... read more
After seeing None but the Lonely Heart the other day, and hearing Robert Osborne and Jack Klugman compare it to Penny Serenade, I had high hopes for this. Don't get me wrong, it's good. It's much less Cary Grantish Cary Grant. And Irene Dunne is always worth the ... read more
The part that sticks out in my mind when I think about this movie is the part where Cary Grant is pleading the judge to let him stay with the little girl-it is such a sad scene. Applejack was a good friend to the couple. Nice, old, little black and white movie about a couple look... read more
A break from romantic follies which called for serious acting talents. Cary Grant is paired with Irene Dunne yet again! They go together well but seem to have forgotten it in theis film.
I love this movie. I thought it was so incredibly touching even though there really wasn't that much going on in the story. I mean, it was a story but definitely something not with a lot of meat. Cary Grant is just amazing in it. Him crying is probably the most heartbreaking thin... read more
A couple's time together expressed through different songs. It will take you through all sorts of different emotions and you'll want to see it again and again.
Probably the most underated Cary Grant movie, one of my all time favorites...don't be fooled by that $1,00 pricetage in the picture, it really is great...Cary Grant was only ever nominated for 2 Oscars, this was one of the roles that he was nominated for.
Cary Grant is my all-time favorite actor, and Irene Dunee is in the top 5 actresses of all time. This film is one of their best pairings.
If you are prone to easy weeping, you might even take along a washtub. Full Review
If you have any tolerance for soap opera, this is one of the classics. Full Review
George Stevens' sentimental melodrama is extremely well acted by Irene Dunne and Cary Grant, who received for his part of a depressed father the first of his two Oscar nominations. Full Review
This is a weeper from the start, with only a few moments of comedy placed in so the audience can dry their eyes before the next sentimental barrage. Full Review
...entertaining enough to warrant a mild recommendation... Full Review
Lesser seen Cary Grant, but very compelling.
Brilliantly made soaper with superb cast.
