Middle of the Night (1959)
Heart Wrenching With A Dose Of Reality
This film was such a pleasure to watch. The New York locations used gave the film a very "true to life" aspect. Novak's and March's acting was excellent. They both did an excellent job respectively portraying a girl whose really looking for a father and a man who understands that but yet feels that she is capable of more. The ending is very satisfying because you're glad they've overcome the objections, but you realize that their problems are hardly over.
Double Harness (1933)
Quite witty & charming.
Really well done adaptation of the play to the screen. Rather wordy as was most early 1930's films, but quite charming nevertheless. And, indeed, rather risque for its day since there is a supposition at one point that Ann Harding's character, Joan, in trying to trap William Powell into marriage, is giving pre-marital favors and is actually caught in the process. The chemistry between Harding and Powell is quite good and it is unfortunate that the two were never paired again in another film.
