THE TALK OF THE TOWN
"THE TALK OF THE TOWN" (1942) MY THOUGHTS:
This is a great little movie. It is part love story, part comedy, part drama and all of it is charming and entertaining. There is a great ensemble of players, and they portray a true "cast of characters" perfectly. I highly recommend it!
