Norma and bob.... really.

I love it but wait! It doesn't have a real story to tell. Four or five people talking,,, and it makes no sense,, except at the end,,, by then it doesn't matter.

Why didn't someone convince Shearer to play Mrs Minniver,, better,, or both,,, Hall Wallace wanted her for ''now,voyager''. at Warners.

1940 ''Escape'' also with Taylor, the critics love this film. When it was released on VHS/DVD....... viewers appreciated the film.

.....1941 Taylor and Lana Turner in; Johnny Eager''. And Robert Taylor almost always looked good.

.........As Garbo, Crawford, Shearer, Garland, Monroe. Cukor was directing many of these ladies end of carrier, films. I fail to see how he was so helpfull to lady stars.

.....Norma Shearer was wonderful, beautiful here,,, even if her clothes were not particularly flattering. Had Shearer gone on to a film-noir,, but then she was gone. ......................... It is a lovely film,, better the second time. And she seemed to not want to work again.................. But Norma Shearers early silent films as her early Talkie's before the code. Re-discovered... Her beautiful voice......She lived in to the 1980's....... ''escape'' is wonderful, Norma was... oh.. still wonderful.
