Since our society has changed drastically since 1934, the year this picture was made, the story-line here may be viewed by some as quite corny. When was the last time we heard the terms respondent and correspondent used in these situations?
A year after her acclaimed Oscar nominated performance for the year's best picture, "Cavalcade," Diana Wynyard stars in this film. She plays a woman returning home from England from Ceylon and shows bitterness towards her failing marriage.
On board the ship, she falls for Colin Clive, though he is a good deal younger than her. Her husband uses this man to start divorce proceedings against her.
The film showed that by 1934 standards, the man was usually in the right in these types of situations.
Perhaps, the film would have been better had it become a murder mystery.
