Max: Peggy! For heavens sake, behave yourself.
Peggy: Why should I? You evidently can't.
June: What?
Peggy: I saw you in the garden last night.
Max: So that's it!
June: Max, you'll have to explain it.
Peggy: Haven't you even the courage to do that yourself?
Max: No - If that's the kind of imagination she has! Let her figure it out for herself.
Peggy: Imagination? You're lovers aren't you?

The Problems Of The Rich

It's the story of a family in their country estate, where the man in charge tries to do his best by everyone: pulling down the old cottages of his tenants to put up new decent ones, dealing with his wife having an affair with his visiting Americans, his in-laws, who look to mulct him of a few pounds so they can take a vacation to Scotland..... and his being thrown from a horse, crippled, and learning he is about to die.

It's from a play by Lionel Brown, clearly intended to appeal to country families visiting London, and it's all rather sweet-tempered and dull, with a syrupy score by Frank Spencer. If the problems of the people in CASABLANCA, where the survival of the ffree world don't amount to a hill of beans, I can't bring myself to care terribly about the rich and propertied who suffer from the same problems as ordinary people, and who have money, servants, and the same problems.

Godfrey Grayson, who prepared the shooting script, directs adequately.
