06/29/2013 Average drama with a leading lady who doesn't register well on screen but then Helen Morgan saunters into the scene and starts to sing and POW! the movie is alive. Unfortunately that only happens a few times throughout the picture. Tracy is compelling as always but this is a meager film. See more 12/02/2012 Gallian gets the Jean Harlow treatment in this slow-moving film chock-full of stereotypes. See more Read all reviews
