May 13, 2021A lighthearted one-joke romcom with Clark Gable and Hedy Lamarr. He's an American reporter exposing the constant barrage of Soviet lies and she's a loyal Soviet citizen spreading the truth of Communism - can they find love together? Made with a cast of familiar character actors there's nothing serious going on here but the chemistry of the leads. A little fun.Kevin M. W Super Reviewer
