Review of Trade Winds

Trade Winds (1938)
2/10
A major disappointment
11 September 2022
Initially, I was excited to see a film with Joan Bennett I hadn't seen. She has always been a favorite for being a good actress, her strong and charming personality and of course her great looks. Ann Southern is another favorite for her great personality and comic flair. Frederic March and Ralph Bellamy are also favorites.

The great cast makes this film an even bigger disappointment. The thin script is stretched with dull filler. This film is basically a home movie of international travel with black and white photography not doing the locales justice.

I don't know what else I can add to get up to the required characters. As I said this is a terrible waste of good actors.
