message: In one magazine biography there is a statement attributed to Charles Boyer where he claimed to have never played a great lover.
"Cardinals and Kings yes.....great lovers......never".  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.93.199.154 (talk) 14:20, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

message: This article needs some work from someone who has the reference materials at hand to provide the sourcing.  It is very badly organized and gives a poor sense of Boyer's career trajectory.  He was a very important actor of the Paris theater in the 1920s.  His first stay in Hollywood was a failure, and he was humiliated by his bit-part in "Red-Headed Woman."  The coming of sound made no change in his career, as he came to Hollywood after sound was established.  However modest a success "Private Worlds" was, that was the film that made him a star.  It is not "The Garden of Allah" that established him.  In fact, my understanding is that that film was something of a failure.
I also don't understand this paragraph:
Boyer played in three classic films of unrequited love: All This, and Heaven Too (1940), with Bette Davis; Back Street (1941), with Margaret Sullavan; and Hold Back the Dawn (1941), with Olivia de Havilland and Paulette Goddard.[10]
None of these films have anything to do with unrequited love.  ATHT is about a mutual, undeclared love, Back Street is about a years-long illicit love affair, and HBTD is about a man who seduces a woman into marriage and then falls in love with her.  Nothing unrequited.
Each of these three movies is a love story, but each is also quite different from the others.  These three movies aren't the only love stories he did, nor necessarily the best known.  With no real reason to group these films together and list them separately, wouldn't it be better simply to combine those films into the list of credits a couple of paragraphs up?
