Franchot Tone, him married to Agnes Moorehead and Laraine Day, her married to
Bruce Bennett have been carrying on an affair, but Tone comes over to Day's house while Bennett's away and says time to end it. Bennett's a dull sort and
Day doesn't want things to end. She gets positively hysterical and remains so
the rest of the film with the events that follow. Quite a bit does follow.
Manipulating all that is going on is Dane Clark who is Bennett's brother and it's positively Iago like the way he controls all around him. This might have been Dane Clark's best moment on the big screen as it is Laraine Day's.
If this is ever remade and maybe it should be, it will be a great example about how the Code could nearly ruin a story. The censorship was such that so much was left out in the telling.
Still a nice piece of melodrama.
