Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/24 Full Review Audience Member The transition from play to film did not work. Crawford did not gel with any of the other characters and there was no chemistry between any of them. It was very dry and matter of fact, when it was intended to be an important drama. This film really falls flat on what it was supposed to be and the way it was written. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review ashley h Goodbye, My Fancy is a decent film. It is about Congresswoman Agatha Reed who returns to her alma mater for a homecoming. Joan Crawford and Robert Young give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Vincent Sherman did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the humor and romance. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Joan Crawford is a congresswoman who returns to her alma matter, where she was expelled for having an affair with professor, now dean and widower, Robert Young. It's an odd mix of lightweight comedy and social drama, but it works in a strange sort of way. Eve Arden is great as Crawford's assistant. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Something different for Joan playing a congresswoman who spends a weekend at her old college on a bittersweet journey. Originally intended for Rosalind Russell who had to bow out at the last minute, the part and Crawford aren't a perfect fit but it's nice to see her try something different. She does a good job and is surrounded by an excellent cast although Frank Lovejoy is likewise not an ideal choice for his role. While all the performers do well two really stand out, Eve Arden is her usual sharp self as Joan's Girl Friday but it's Lurene Tuttle who steals every second of her screen time as a seemingly flighty old chum who is more than meets the eye. Mixed in with the romance are some trenchant points about censorship and the fallacy of memory. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
