Enredo
Você sabia?
- CuriosidadesSir James M. Barrie's original play, which is a short piece of less than an hour in length, dates from 1912 and is set in a small rural boarding-house "far from London", where a famous actress has elaborately disguised herself as a dowdy middle-aged type in order to escape from adoring admirers and her frantic celebrity lifestyle in the metropolis. As this indicates, this movie adaptation is a very free one.
- Erros de gravaçãoCrux of plot hinges on efforts of a Broadway producer and playwright to find ideal actresses to star in a play about a troubled mother/daughter relationship. Yet when the pair attends a summer stock production of the play, large poster outside theatre only includes photos of actress playing daughter and two male co-stars - completely ignoring actress who plays crucial mother role that's been talked about throughout entire film.

Clara Mootz aka Sally Carver: How many drinks have you had, Mr. Phillips?
E. Harry Phillips: Innumerable. And the fact that I can still say "innumerable" suggests that that's nowhere near enough!

Avaliação em destaque
This is a very good film that manages to entertain even though one of the characters was atrociously written. The film begins with a cocky young playwright (William Holden) being discovered. Although he's managed to offend a famous Broadway star (Ginger Rogers), he's also impressed her with his talent and good looks. The problem is that she wants to star in his play--even though she is WAY too old for the part. Even though they re-write it for her to play a character 10 years older, she still is too old for the part. But he wants the play to be produced and he's also in love with her. What's he to do?! And, what's he to do about Sally Carver--a spunky young actress who would be perfect for the part?
While Holden, Rogers and Paul Douglas all did great because they were real professionals and their parts were well written, I couldn't say the same for Pat Crowley (who played Sally). Although her character was supposed to be very eager and raw, she often came off as annoying and obnoxious. Her constant use of the word 'Siamese' and brash persona really turned me off--as I am sure it did for the audience. It's surprising, since the studio appeared to be grooming her for stardom--and the film's credits point out that she's a new discovery. But, if you can block out her character (at least until she evolves into a REALISTIC person later in the film), you will see a cool film--one that gives Rogers a chance to stretch herself and play a riskier role--an actress whose vanity is getting in the way of common sense. Well worth seeing.
