Joan Fontaine plays the title character, a super-alluring women who is adored by four men--all of which want to marry her. While I thought Fontaine was a decent enough actress, here she seemed miscast as I couldn't see any of the sex appeal that the four men found in her. As for the story...well...it was just okay.
The story begins with a very impulsive Richard (Walter Abel) insisting that Susan marry him. Then, quite impulsively, he insists they marry tonight and move across the country to DC. However, when he sees that Susan has three other men who adore her, he decides to invite them all to meet so he can learn more about them...and his bride to be. Each, in turn, tells their story. The first is Susan's ex-husband, Roger (George Brent) and the other two are guys who fell for her once she and Roger were no more (Don Defore and Dennis O'Keefe). Then, when the film ends, Susan must choose one of these guys...or none (as back then choosing two or three or all four was DEFINITELY not an option).
The story was pretty weak and Fontaine neither convincing nor giving one of her better performances. Overall, this clearly has time- passer written all over it. Not a bad film....just not all that good a film.
