Sylvia Scarlett (1936)

    "...overstrained performances, with the exception of that of Cary Grant..."

With Katharine Hepburn.

Sylvia Scarlett - Review is taken from 'The Films of Cary Grant' by Donald Deschner (1973):

"Story construction and development are beclouded, with resultant hop-skipping in the action, labored dialogue, and overstrained performances, with the exception of that of Cary Grant.  Mr. Grant's is the most convincing performance, in a role which is fresh, and at the same time contributes something towards stabilizing the action, a fact which may be of value in shaping the course of showmanship.
