On New Year's Eve, Geraldine ('Jerry') Trent decides to break up with her boyfriend Jim Woodward, having finally grown tired of his dishonesty and his infidelities. Soon afterward, Geraldine meets and falls in love with novelist Anthony Blake. Blake knows that she has had a man in her past, but he is content as long as he never finds out who it was. All seems well until her sister Joan returns from a trip, and happily introduces Woodward as the new man in her life. (imdb)

The writing is good but the delivery of the lines impedes any sort of rhythm. It's not even that the acting is bad, Swanson is quite likable and the male leads are sympathetic but there's just no chemistry or flow and that makes it a slog to get through it, even with the short running time.

The pacing of the dialog is all off--almost like no one was directing the dialog scenes. But all involved are likable, and Gloria Swanson proves what I always suspected from watching her in "Sunset Boulevard": that she had a real knack for comedy.

It's a very dated movie, but Gloria Swanson makes it worth your while. She even has a few singing numbers! The story and pacing however is very uneven. Sometimes one felt nothing was going on, but there was a few moments where it picked up like at the 'crazy' dinner. Overall this should have been better, but it's not a total waster.

Plenty of prime confirmation bias material here for those who think like me that McCarey was uhhh the best ever but I should probably re-watch not on a DVD whose constant sputterings could more than conceivably make up for the 17-minute disparity between it and all available runtimes
