Suzy Review
"This thing is bigger than both of us," Jean_Harlow exclaims after discovering that the German lady spy who shot her first husband, Franchot_Tone, is now dallying with Cary_Grant, her second. The unmasking of nasty Benita_Hume is but the latest in a series of wildly implausible coincidences that nearly sink this melodrama, which is slightly buoyed by the performance of Grant, who turns his usually lighthearted insouciance into something a bit more sinister this time around. A replacement for Clark_Gable and as such forced to accept third billing after Harlow and Tone, both stellar MGM employees, Grant famously warbles a few bars of Walter_Donaldson and Harold_Adamson's "Did I Remember (To Tell You I Adored You)," but the screenplay remains a muddled mess which not even such nimble wordsmiths as Dorothy_Parker and Alan_Campbell could fix. Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi
