Everyone knows this film and everyone loves it.
I tried to observe some flaws if there are any in it. The actress playing the daughter looked too old for the role. Stanwyck was 37 when this was made and Mc Murray was 36.
I agree with the reviewer who stated Mc Murray's later roles in TV sit coms and so forth tainted his image. It's true it was hard to take him seriously.
A new Cadillac driving around the rail road tracks might attract some notice especially in 1939 (the year this is supposed to take place).
Also you have to suspend disbelief that Mc Murray would be so smitten by Stanwyck he would attempt anything like this. She is not especially at 37 (or any age!) the most attractive woman in the world. The blond wig? I guess was supposed to make her look ?? maybe cheap or tainted. She can carry any role though plouging through it like a bulldozer.
But these are so minor. I loved the movie watch it and read the other reviews.
RECOMMEND HIGHLY
