My Reputation (1946)
7/10
Real soaper from the 1940's
18 April 2003
Initially compelling storyline (recent widow with overbearing mother can't figure out what to do with her life....way before careers were "acceptable")...meets George Brent in an inprobable ski scenario, falls for him, he's supposed to be a playboy (NOT very convincing....), neighbors talk, mom is scandalized, etc., etc.....but the acting grabs you and you want to see it through....unfortunately, it's a rather "fairy-tale" ending (he decides he loves her after all). Would love to see this updated and remade, but today would probably be a "made for TV" Lifetime movie romancer.
