Review :

If it's supposed to be a lightweight confection, someone forgot to inform Miss Crawford...

Miscast, highly-contrived screen-adaptation of Fay Kanin's play about a U.S. Congresswoman and her devoted secretary going back to the same all-girl college the fiery female politician was expelled from twenty years ago. Seems the President of Administration wants to give her an honorary degree, however the Board of Trustees are concerned over the Congresswoman's 'radical' political views--and are as yet unaware of the President and the Congresswoman's scandalous past together! In the lead, Joan Crawford anxiously strides up and down like a woman possessed; the role doesn't require it, and the star's angst is as misplaced here as is Frank Lovejoy's crass portrayal of a combat-photographer from LIFE who used to date Crawford and now wants her back. Joan dabs at her eyes and shoos away male suitors, yet we never know what she's doing to cause so much emotional turmoil (this Congresswoman is all business, no fun). Eve Arden (dry as ever) and Robert Young (with overstated gray streaks in his hair) come off best, but Lurene Tuttle plays to the rafters as Joan's former roommate whose husband just happens to be the most vocal objector on the Board. The young woman who now occupies Crawford's old dorm-room happens to be Young's daughter, who tells the Congresswoman after a chat, "I grew up a little today, thanks to you." A stilted nosegay, designed for blue-hair audiences of another era. ** from ****
