This story of music professor Adam Lemp, his four daughters and the men who love them aims straight at the heart - and scores an unerring hit. Poignant, laced with Iaughter and flawlessIy acted, it catches viewers up in the quiet but powerfuI lives of ordinary peopIe. MichaeI Curtiz's direction is assured and the casting is ideaI: Claude Rains as Lemp, the three Lane sisters (pIus Gale Page) as the daughters, and newcomer John Garfield, making a stunning impression as the troubIed pianist who remains an outsider despite the family's open arms. ln The New York Times, B.R. Crisler hailed GarfieId's performance as "the most startIing innovation in the way of a screen character in years." LittIe wonder that among the fiIm's Oscar nominations (incIuding Best Picture) was a Best Supporting Actor nod to the new star. |
