Academy Award performance from Miss Hayward.
I don't care if the critics considered this a bad movie or not, Susan Hayward's performance is outstanding and so is Marsh Hunts'. Wait till you see the fight scene between the two of them, it looked like these broads forgot it was acting! Miss Hayward insisted on playing the bedroom fire scene without a double and the subtleness with which she plays a drunk is every bit as good as Kim Stanley did in The Goddess! If you like melodrama and love Susan Hayward, this is a film you can't miss.
I'LL DRINK TO THAT.....PERFORMANCE.
THIS FILM IS THE SECOND BEST WORK THAT I'VE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF SEEING MISS HAYWARD IN....SECOND ONLY TO " I WANT TO LIVE ".THE FILM STARTS OFF SIMPLE ENOUGH WITH MISS HAYWARD IN RAREST OF FORM , BEAUTY AND CHARM....THE MUSIC SCORE IS A KNOCKOUT...AFTER THE RETURN OF A LONG GONE BEAU SHE DECIDES TO TURN HER BACK ON A RISING CAREER TO HELP NURTURE HER 'MAN'S " DREAMS...AFTER MUCH DRINK AND DRAMA THE STORY TAKES A TURN FOR THE BEST IN WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS INSPIRED WRITING AND ACTING...THE CATTINESS BETWEEN HER AND HER NOW HUSBAND'S ASSISTANT IS PHENOMENAL...THERE IS ALSO A FIGHT SCENE THAT RIVALS THOSE OF ALEXIS AND KRYSTAL OF DYNASTY FAME...THE STORY IS TRUE TO OLD HOLLYWOOD FORM IN THAT IT ENDS BITTER SWEETLY...KUDOS FOR "

Start of a great career
Susan Hayward gives a bravura performance in her first starring role. It was clear from this film that she would someday be an Academy Award-winning best actress.

A good movie, Susan Hayward is always good in all she has done, but this film is medium and fairly predictable.
It's Not Days Of Wine And Roses, But......
Great Susan Hayward. Not quite as believable as an alcoholic, but still the story is over the top,good melodrama! Supposedly this the story of Bing Crosby's wife, Dixie Lee.
