I didn't find Barrat very believable though I did in Heroes for Sale. I think I need to start paying attention to him. I gave his filmography a quick onceover and I think I've seen him in 27 films without really having a clue who he was. I have a feeling he's going to become much more visible to me now and turn up all the time, just like Friedrich von Ledebur who played many of the same sort of roles a couple of decades later.Hal C.

It was a very unique film. I wasn't sure I wanted to keep it, then I decided to go ahead and keep it since sometimes, you learn to appreciate things you didn't care for in the past. I gained a new appreciation for Ruth Chatterton through this film. Robert Barrat was new to me and he completely fooled me with his German character, until I saw him turn up as Barbara Stanwyck's pimp/dad in BABY FACE a few days ago. That was a revelation. -MitaliMitalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06524621122380836474noreply@blogger.com
