Signalizes [Roach's] entry into full-length sophistication. Full Review |

|
Cary Grant and Constance Bennett, as the reincarnated Kerbys, do their assignments with great skill. Full Review |

|
Sophisticated, but a touch too mild, saved by an ebullient cast. Full Review |
|||
|
Too gentle and leisurely to survive as a solid classic, though there's pleasure to be found in the cast's graceful way with comedy and their smooth ensemble playing. Full Review |

[C]harming and witty darlings... get to spend eternity wandering around in their evening clothes... Full Review |

Stylish, whimsical comedy-fantasy with great cast.

Cary Grant and Constance Bennett are Thorne Smith's continental ghosts, haranguing tired businessman Roland Young in arch screwball style. Full Review |
