The film was the first film to bring real critical success to its star Bette Davis, her over-the-top, theatrical performance was passed over for a Best Actress Oscar nomination, although she was an unofficial write-in candidate. The RKO film, directed by John Cromwell, tells the story of a club-footed, sensitive artist Philip Carey Leslie Howard , an Englishman who has been studying painting in Paris for four years, but is advised by his art teacher that his work is mediocre and second-rate, and that he lacks promise.
So he returns to London, England to take up studies to become a medical doctor, but his older age and introspection make it difficult for him to keep up in his scholastic work. In England, he becomes infatuated - and then obsessed by a blonde, lower-class, slatternly and vulgar, Cockney-accented, illiterate tearoom waitress named Mildred Rogers Bette Davis.

Reviewer: DaveBob99 - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - August 6, Subject: A Fun Holiday Movie Make it a holiday tradition by watching this every year. I love the scene where Bette Davis goes skating, and they buy some 'sweets' to eat, Sweet Potatoes that is. Great fun, especially when Jimmy Durante shows up. Billy Burke is also a delight playing her usual role. Reviewer: classiclibra - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - October 7, Subject: Classic film of the early 40's One of my all time favorites.
Clever, witty, great cast including Jimmy Durante at his best. I'm not a big Bette Davis fan, but this is one of her few I do like.
