A bit of a soap opera kind of movie but I quite liked it, mainly for the playing of Ella Raines as Phyllis Holmes who starts out as a homely woman who after an accident has plastic surgery and becomes a beautiful one. Complications ensue. Ms. Raines was an undeservedly underrated actress and always gave a good performance. The only snag in the film is that even though Phyllis starts out supposedly plain (mainly conveyed by the wearing of a false nose) Ms. Raines' natural attractiveness shines through anyway so her agonies about being plain aren't that convincing. On the whole the cast was fine and the dialogue listenable. It's a pleasant 77 minutes.
