not emotionally, with Angela as she
is tempted to forget her vows. These
scenes prove once more the great
acting ability of this woman.
Cool dignity is given the lengthy

vow. Miss Hayes gives us the idea
that. she completely understands in
her own mind what she is giving up
and the life she is accepting.
Clark Gable is a good actor when
he has the right feminine support.
