Although unreal and not touching the experience of anyone in the audience, the film was entertaining to watch and made a good story. Perhaps because it was less pretentious than Spellbound (which had a special preamble on psychiatry and billed a psychiatric adviser), the improbabilities did not spoil the enjoyment of the film. Some of the photography was excellent ; scenes in the artist's attic studio and in the bombed house in London and the picture of Cassandra which kept appearing as a kind of motif were most effective. But the usual sequences of the house-party in the stately English home of one of the nobility brought down the level of this part of the picture. Wealth in the cinema has become monotonous.
