| Program Notes |
| From the suburbs of Haverly to the lights of Broadway. A stage actress is disputed by husband, lover, and impresario, who meet on the occasion of Henry Livingstone's death. (What a coincidence!) The convoluted plot and an unimaginative mise en scène are amply redeemed by the astonishing photography of James Wong Howe. Open your eyes, and forget about the story. -PCU |
