While blessed with pre-code swash and buckle, wonderful production values (for 1930), and two wonderful leading players, the old-fashioned theatrical emoting and grand speechifying does get in the way of credibility. It is such a wonderful chance to see two masters of the stage doing early sound film work. If it does not quite work is hardly their fault.

The pre-code aspect is unpunished adultery and divorce offered as a solution to the dilemma of the husband/lover story. The two leads are good but don’t reach any heights.
