Plot

His last film, a remake of Lady for a Day.

Sinekatalog’s take

Frank Capra's final film remakes Lady for a Day, with Bette Davis as an apple seller turned lady. Sweet, sentimental and overlong, it is a gentle farewell with Glenn Ford's gangster charm.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
