Steve D @RT35616104 Dec 28, 2023 The story is fine but Harding makes it better. See more acsdoug D @acsdoug Sep 6, 2023 I'm not used to seeing Myrna Loy play a conniving, manipulative character. She did just fine, I just found the story rather dull, despite a promising premise. See more Jan 12, 2020 Subtle pre-code (realistic) drama, starring the magnificent and stunning actors Ann Harding, Myrna Loy, and Leslie Howard. This is a gem of a movie, and receives extra points for being filmed during the technological backwardness of 1932. See more Dec 19, 2016 Stagy film adaptation of a stage play.of the same name. Leslie Howard plays a magazine publisher in love with artist Ann Harding, but instead marrying manipulative socialite Myrna Loy instead. There is some pre-code naughtiness that helps to make this otherwise talky and not so dramatic of film watchable, mainly how open the film is about sex and sexuality, but the main credit goes to the great Myrna Loy for holding my interest. Loy wasn't a major star yet when she made this film and actually received third billing, but she steals every scene she's in and is almost a proto-femme fatale. See more Dec 14, 2016 Myrna Loy is amazing in this though the movie fails to wrap up its intended message. It has some good dialogue but never goes anywhere other than that. See more ashley h @ashleyhobgood87 Oct 23, 2015 The Animal Kingdom is a decent film. It is about a publisher who must choose between the woman he loves and a wealthy woman of his father's choosing. Leslie Howard, Ann Harding, and Myrna Loy give good performances. The screenplay is a slow in places. Edward H. Griffith did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama and romance. See more Read all reviews
