Review of Tonight or Never (1931) by Sherry L — 24 May 2011
"If you want to see a star, look at me"; Zarah Leander said. If you want to see a diva, watch Tonight or Never, I say.
This is one of Gloria Swanson's few movies with sound. Here she plays a celebrated opera singing bird, who starts to lose her gleam as she is getting bored with her life. Perhaps love to a certain gent may help her to gain her sparkle again.
That certain gent is played by the great Melvyn Douglas.
The story is pretty thin. It's not a bad movie, but don't expect any Sunset Boulevard.
This is mainly for Swanson-fans.
