ashley h @ashleyhobgood87 04/20/2018 Top Secret Affair is a decent film. It is about the head of a large publishing empire who is dismayed when a top army general is about to be appointed to an atomic energy committee. Kirk Douglas and Susan Hayward give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. H.C. Potter did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the humor. See more 09/16/2015 ok rom-com old school See more 10/27/2011 Cute, fluffy comedy starring two actors not usually associated with the genre. Susan is the take charge magazine owner trying to bulldoze Kirk's Army general, they are well matched and their charisma adds a lot to this slight bit of whimsy. Unmemorable but made pleasant by two great stars. Paul Stewart and Jim Backus add to the film's enjoyment with expert performances. See more 07/23/2011 interesting drama great cast.
