Bruce W Jun 29 Ida Lupino stranded alone on the third point of a love triangle. Every movie I've seen with her in the early 1940s follows this same format, though this one is not in any way a film noir. Straight melodrama but well enough presented to be worth a watch. See more Steve D 05/29/2023 Melodramatic but strongly made. See more acsdoug D @acsdoug 05/22/2023 Joan Leslie is not very convincing as a song and dance superstar. Ida Lupino, on the other hand, is terrific. Her hard boiled driven character is perfect for her acting style. Dennis Morgan is very good here too. Good movie. See more David K 05/11/2023 Good cast leads a good film that's better than it should be. Hardly unique in its depiction of the drama and unbridled ambition of the lead - Ida Lupino - one of the greats for both her acting chops and pioneering role as a female director (not for this film, that would come later). Joan Leslie, Dennis Morgan, and Jack Carson all turn in stellar performances. I've heard Joan Leslie sing in other films, but her slightly off singing here is perfect for the role.
