Great stars

This has great stars in it, and I focused on their performances which were very solid. The action was dynamic and fast paced. There is a great scene with Errol Flynn with 2 different telephone receivers in his hands and his physical and verbal gymnastics speaking back and forth with the ladies and. A make believe client in the room showed tremendous cooreiatin and talent--- it's worth it for that scene - so very precious!

While it was fast paced, the plot seemed too drawn out and convoluted, about saving a paper, competing for women, dragging people through the mud, saving them in PR. There were so many elements and you had to study to stay on track of it, rather than to relax and watch.

Rosalind Rusell had great repartee and a wonderful actress with comedic timing. I did not feel here relationship with Bob Langford was well developed enough to believe they could be together. I'm not sure Bob Langford (Errol Flynn) was ready to be married to anyone! He was focused on his clients and career, and didn't seem to be seeking it.

While there was a lot of action and funny attempts at physically switching people or moving them around in different settings, I didn't find a lot of it funny. You could tell they were trying, but seemed a lot of effort, a lot of convoluted story. Having said that, these are world class actors and for that alone the movie was solid. They all have lovely, enduring screen presence, talent and delivery.
