Stagy But Good, 27 September 2006
5/10
Author: David (Handlinghandel) from NY, NY

Ruth Chatterton is always worth watching. She is very good here. As a temptress, she's not terribly convincing. This was only a few years before she played the heartbreaking Fran Dodsworth. That character thinks she is a man-trap but she's well past her prime.

She seems to be surrounded by actors who are also not in the blush of young.

Georrge Brent, in an early role, is very appealing as her husband. He has a drinking problem. But he loves her.

The title does refer to the stock market. Everyone here is concerned about money.

It isn't a movie for the ages. But Chatterton was a performer for the ages.
