Directed by John Cromwell
Print: black/white

Genre: drama
Print Quality: B
George Bancroft is the ruthless editor of a scandal oriented newspaper. He's oblivious to
his lovely, "loving" wife's afternoon and evening sessions with a pickled puss lover (Kay
Francis and Clive Brook). Kay asks Clive for 24 Hours (!) (they co-starred in a movie with that
title in '31) to decide whether or not to run off to Europe with him. In a key scene one sees
the revulsion for Bancroft's work ethic -- it has left her cold and unloving. Brook himself
becomes a victim of Bancroft's paper and not to spoil the ending, I'll leave it there. It's an
absorbing and well-performed drama. Francis registers well here, although the ending
leaves us wondering whatever happened to her.
