Indiscreet, 1958

A movie about a woman who meets a married man (wink) and falls in love with him - the movie really never goes anywhere or provides any real fun. Grant and Bergman are both great actors, but they're really never given anything to do here - except Grant shows off some crazy dance moves. The missing element is this movie never really creates the emotions you'd expect - the building love, betrayal and final resolution, it's all pretty emotionless. The secondary characters are the only ones that really stick out as funny or memorable. The scenes and wardrobes are very good looking and dazzling in some cases, but it comes down to the dialogue and the lack of any real fun and wit that you'd expect from Grant in a comedy. It's still some fun seeing Bergman and Grant together and I wouldn't dissuade people from seeing it, but it's not one of their better films.
