Despite The Stars, One Viewing Was Enough
25 April 2006
This was fairly entertaining film with so-so comedy, good enough for one viewing with the two big-name actors in the lead: James Cagney and Bette Davis. But multiple looks diminish this and it becomes just too dated and corny. It doubt if it's a film either Cagney or Davis would brag about having on their resumes.

Cagney and Davis did play off each other pretty well with some good dialog, to be fair. I also enjoyed Harry Davenport as the ghost town hotel owner. He didn't get a big enough billing for the role he played. Eugene Pallete, Jack Carson, George Tobias and Stuart Erwin also contributed and all were fine except Carson, who was just plain stupid.
