This film was way too long! The art deco sets were fabulous. A scene where they were pouring tea from this exquisite tea pot into this fantastic cup made me envious.

(I coveted that tea pot.) The costumes were great.(One scene at a country club the black and white costumes were eye popping.) The plot has some excellent twists and turns. I liked the death row marriage. But on the whole the movie is not a very believable melodrama.(You can' have everything.) The coal mine cave in was GREAT.(This was a wonderful action scene and it made the whole film worth watching.) I loved Kay Johnson performance very much.(Small world story: three days ago I looked up her son James Cromwell on IMDb.)
