Smart Woman (1931)
6/10
like her not the scheme
12 May 2024
Mrs. Nancy Gibson (Mary Astor) is returning from Paris. She is eager to be back home with her husband Donald Gibson (Robert Ames). He's not there to greet her at the docks. Instead, she's picked up by her servant Bill. Don is away and everybody knows why. He's cheating on her and he wants a divorce.

This is a not so smart woman. I don't see keeping Don as a viable option. He's not appealing and she's out of his league. I would demand a lot of money. Tricking him with a rival would only make him expecting a divorce more. This would work if I could see Donald as a great catch and that's a tough hurdle to overcome. Despite my reservation about Nancy's scheme, I do really like Mary Astor and that keeps my interest.
