Featured review
Too Much Talk
Edith Fellowes runs away from. Her mother to be with her father, Richard Dix. Dix is agreeable, but he's soon broke! No problem! He'll get a job digging a ditch. But ex-wife Erin O'Brien-Moore shows up, he's shipped off to prison for murder, and she takes Miss Fellowes with her. Before they part, Dix extracts a promise from Miss Fellowes to write him every day. She does so for thirteen years. When the letters stop, he escapes from prison and makes his way to where Miss Fellowes has grown into Dorothy Wilson, and is psychosomatically ill from Miss O'Brien-Moore's meddling in her love affair with Bruce Cabot.
Performance are good, camerawork by Ted Tetzlaff is dazzling, but director John S. Robertson can't extract more from this movie than "Laugh and grow well." With Shirley Grey and Leonard Carey.
