A nice romantic film for the holiday season.
Ginger Rogers is Mary Marshall, a woman on furlong from prison for Christmas. She was in trouble for accidental manslaughter and has to go back to prison to finish serving her term. She meets and falls in love with Zachary Morgen (Joseph Cotton) but is too afraid to tell him the truth about herself. Zachary is a man in the military who has PTSD and anxiety attacks and he's afraid to tell Mary about his problems. Both are trying to put their best face forward to one another.
Pretty good film to watch around the Yuletide/Christmas holidays. A lovely film.
7/10.

A good, dark version of the tale of Ebeneezer Scrooge's transformation. Scrooge has one of the best character arcs in literature and this adaptation is worth while watching. This version has it's on uniqueness that it's enjoyable viewing.
The film is one of the better adaptations I've seen - comparable to the (1984 film with George C. Scott).
If you've never watched any of the many versions of A Christmas Carol/Scrooge then you are missing out on a great classic ghost story.
If you've seen several versions of this story as I have then you aren't missing much by skipping this version but it is worth your while to watch at least once for the holiday season.
9/10.

Monica Rivers (Joan Crawford) owns a circus. Relations are rocky but the show was going on fine until the first murder. Everyone suspects everyone else - including the show owner Monica.
Monica (Crawford) gets a chance to off in her night gown in front of a younger man that claims to lover her. Not the first time I've seen Crawford in this type of role - older woman, younger man.
The film's even pace is a little slow but works for the film. The circus show itself is pretty good. The film is acted out well and the story is a bit interesting.
The film would pair well with: "Psycho-Circus", "Vampire Circus" or "Freaks".
