steve d Some surprising weight. The stars are fantastic. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review s r A WW2 time period drama about the war. I think it should be seen merely to appreciate how outlandish this plot was for a Hollywood blockbuster. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Possibly the worst script Rogers or Grant ever had. But anti-Nazi flicks were all the rage in Jewish dominated Hollywood. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member One of my five top Cary Grant films. The chemistry between Grant and Rogers is excellent. While it drifts from romantic comedy to melodrama at times when portraying Nazi villains, this must be viewed in the context of the time in which the movie was made. Unlike today, the lines between good guys and bad guys were not blurred. (The scene in which Ginger Rogers pledges her allegiance to the United States is unabashedly patriotic, and again must be viewed in the context of the times.) Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Odd romantic tragi-comedy set in a pre-WWII Germany (though filmed during the war). Carey Grant is a radio correspondent who falls for burlesque dancer Ginger Rogers who's engaged to be married to an Austian Baron who's really an undercover Nazi agent. The film has some rather long dull spells and there is one particularly strange moment later in the film when Grant and Rogers are mistaken for Jews and nearly sent to concentration camps. Still, Cary Grant can make just about any film watchable and Ginger Rogers is her usual likable self too, which does make this film worth checking out, even if it's far from a classic. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member You'd think the combination of Cary Grant, Ginger Rogers, and Leo McCarey directing would be a slam dunk, or at least entertaining throughout, but the movie is overlong, and there's some parts that you can tell they didn't have any good ideas for. The movie is able to coast on Grant and Roger's charm, but there's not much else to enjoy in this strange movie. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
