Quotes
Aggie Hunter:
Don't worry for me. I'm here if you need me. I can't help my own nature. If I love you it's something I can't help, and something that I need. People are what they are and love what they love, and I don't see any sense in trying to be something else. I wouldn't trade it for a box at the opera, the thing I feel for you. And you can't change it or take it away from me. And there you are mister jack in the box.

Unique movie, fantastic, shows part of Cary Grant rarely seen.. even if just in a movie role. In the role of Ernie Mott, shows a rare side and if you're open to cockney accent and a rough neighborhood, well.. he's charm comes through .. even without the usual polish. A champion movie.. showing a hint of Cary Grant's background.. His change in heart for his mom and turnaround coupled with the difficulties of pre-war england. I suppose some might not like the lack of polish and some people can not get past a thick accent.. and the British slang from the rougher side of town... if you look past that and open up to the role.. you'll love this movie
