Sizzle. Sizzle. Cooper is hotttt!!

Clio was right. Cleent was "beautiful". Mrs. Bellop was right. With Coop's big shoulders and narrow hips, Clio would have been stupid to give that up in place of that milksop rich guy, Bartholomew Van Steed. I guess Mrs. Sophie Bellop didn't get her money, but ah well. Clio ended up with Cleent, and I'm sure the children turned out to be handsome, tall boys and beautiful, charming and coquettish girls. Turns out Clint ended up wealthy, so Clio got the handsome guy and the money, too, $$$$. Gary Cooper was one tall, cool and handsome drink of water.

When Mrs. Bellop gave Mrs. Van Steed her comeuppance, I laughed out loud. Showing up Mrs. Van S. was indeed a stroke of genius. I always enjoy seeing Florence Bates, especially in "On The Town".

Ingrid Bergman was awesome. She was very beautiful, and I enjoyed hearing her mixture of French and English. She looked very wonderful in the costuming.

Jerry Austin (Cupidon) stole the show, in my book. When he told Clint, "I am a man!!," it was a heartwarming moment for me. Small actors and characters are tired of being treated as goofy marionettes.

Love New Orleans French Quarter, and loved seeing the neighborhoods in this movie. Jambalaya a good memory. These streets and foods still exist.

Loved seeing Flora Robson, an English actress, in her role as Angelique. She had the American accent down well, plus the New Orleans patois. Her raised eyebrows could sink ships. I thought that her makeup and costuming were perfect for the role. Also, she actually loved Clio, as well as Cupidon and even Clint.
