There are several types of films that I generally don't like, and stories about con men (and women) is one type of film I generally avoid. But, I also have always liked Greer Garson, so this time I made an exception...and I'm glad I did.

The film doesn't start out strongly, but as it proceeds it builds to...well...the conclusion was actually a bit of a let down. Part of the problem is that this film can't quite decide if it's a comedy or a drama. Either way could have worked, and this does work, but I would rather that it would have been one or the other. Particularly at the end, when it seems to lean heavily toward comedy.

The cast here comes together nicely. Garson is pretty good as a con woman with a conscience. Michael Wilding is excellent as the male half of the con team. Fernando Lamas adds flair to the film, as well as some sentimentality. And this has to be one of Marjorie Main's best roles as a rich woman with little class.

Certainly not one of Garson's better films, but it is entertaining...at least after the introductory scenes, which I felt didn't really work well.
