There are some very solid performances here with O'Hara and Menjou leading the way. May Witty is also on-point as the overly pious, self-righteous, miserable old windbag that everyone will love to hate. The story is very old-fashioned but never-the-less it does still kind of work. Sure, it's a little bit slow but there are enough moments that when put together almost makes it worth your time until . . . The final section comes. The fact that John just gets up and walks away never to be seen again with absolutely no protestions is quite a sham really. Did he ever really love her? I think he did and that is not how his character would have responded to that bit of news. And then the very ending between O'Hara and Menjou - was that supposed to be inspiring, uplifting? I have no idea what the viewer is supposed to feel but I found of completely unsatisfying.
