A typically polished well-made melodrama as you'd expect from the professional but rather corporate MGM factory. Unfortunately this means that all the rough edges are ironed out leaving a somewhat bland retelling of a well-worn (even for 1933) story.
Even though Loretta Young is exceptionally believable, exhibiting a maturity well beyond her years, it is not enough to draw you in to this miserable cliché drenched yarn.
An hour and a quarter has never seemed so long.
