Affairs of a Rogue

Unlike the rather severe melodramatic fare being churned out by Gainsborough, this is a much more light-hearted business until the bittersweet ending; lavishly produced and stylishly directed by Cavalcanti from a witty script drawn from Norman Ginsbury's popular play.

Among a large supporting cast Cecil Parker's comical Prince Regent naturally stands out, along with Margaretta Scott and a young Melissa Stribling as two of his mistresses ("Come Isabella, sit on my knee!") and Athene Seyler as the heroine's good-hearted aunt.
