We've reached Day 7 of Girl Week 2018. It's been a great run so far. I say so far because there will be one more post on this site later today. Hopefully, one or two of you fine folks will have one, too. But let's talk about the present. Joel is back with another review. I'll let him have the floor.
Joan Crawford plays Congresswoman Agatha Reed, authoritative and progressive minded, who takes a break from the cutthroat world of politics, she thinks, when she’s offered an honorary degree from her old alma mater, the all-female Good Hope College.
Having turned down similar awards from more prestigious schools without a backward glance her wisecracking secretary Woody (a scene stealing Eve Arden) is surprised when she jumps at this chance but Agatha has a secret. She was expelled from the school for staying out all night with a boy whose identity she never revealed and is anxious to return as a success. There’s another piece of the puzzle as well, the boy now a man-James Merrill (Robert Young) who she was with is the widowed president of Good Hope with a daughter (Janice Rule) who is ready to graduate. Upon arrival through misty eyes she finds that the torch she’s carried all these years (the poster tagline for the film was "No one holds a candle to Joan – when Joan is carrying the torch!") is reciprocated by Merrill. Despite the attentions of another old flame, Life photographer Matt Cole (Frank Lovejoy), who has followed her to the college on the pretext of covering the ceremony, all seems rosy.
But there are rumblings under the calm surface of Good Hope. Agatha finds that there is big trouble brewing between the powerful head of the board of trustees, a close minded blowhard by the name of Claude Griswold (Howard St. John) who is married to Agatha’s old roommate the seemingly addlepated Ellie (Lurene Tuttle), and the college’s most progressive professor Dr. Pitt (Morgan Farley) who encourages the young women to think for themselves and become aware of the world situation with Merrill smack dab in the middle.
Agatha is sure that Merrill will fall on the side of Dr. Pitt and enlightenment as she does and as the man she remembers would but Cole senses that the years of administrative bargaining have changed him. As the weekend progresses her faith is shaken to its foundations as it appears Cole might have the proper perspective. Things come to a head when the film Agatha has brought with her to show to the graduating class, a chronicle of her time as a reporter in war torn countries where freedom was destroyed, is withdrawn.
Full of excellent performances with Joan getting several chances to breathe a little fire including a great scene where she faces down someone who has suddenly become an opponent. Lacing into him and backing him into a corner to do the right thing she tells him when he says he can’t believe she’d actually do what she threatens “You see you learn all kinds of cute tricks in my work, the most important one being…never play fair unless you RESPECT the men you’re dealing with.” Again Eve Arden shows why she was one of the top supporting actresses of all time and Lurene Tuttle emerges as a stealth power player late in the picture. Frank Lovejoy, though miscast (the role has Jack Carson’s name all over it), does a fine job of the cynical, wry fly in the ointment photographer.
A star vehicle for Crawford (though a somewhat offbeat role for her, original star Rosalind Russell had to bow out at the last minute) at heart this is a bittersweet romance and meditation on nostalgia-the title is taken from the first verse of a Walt Whitman poem:
