Steve D 02/28/2024 A weaker cast with the same melodrama as the remake. See more william d @acsdoug 03/04/2022 It wasn't all that bad, there are just better movies from this period to watch. See more david f 11/25/2020 A classic romance set in London during the first world war. See more Christopher S 08/11/2019 Just a great tear jerker. They CERTAINLY don't make 'em like this anymore. James Whale plus pre-code material plus wonderful acting. An extremely young actress named Bette Davis, plays the (non-neurotic) younger sister,with nary a twitch nor a mannerism. i thoroughly enjoyed every sniffle it induced,and every catch it caused in my throat. See more W. W. W 06/02/2017 Apparently, this Myra was not in love with Roy. See more 06/01/2017 I'm not a fan of how this movie is old fashioned and the color black and white, along that it didn't seem interesting at all with the whole plot of the movie See more Read all reviews
