Review of Kitty Foyle (1940) by Stephanie F — 10 Apr 2009
In my favorite narrative style, the story is told in a series of flashback as Ginger engages in some dialog with her alter ego in a mirror. Kitty is confronted by her two suitors, both of whom propose to her at the same time. Wynn, is a Philadephia millionaire whilst Mark is a doctor. This scenario in her life begins a contemplating what she should do, thus, the mirror debate with herself proved to be very effective. The onscreen chemistry between Ginger Rogers and Dennis Morgan is unique and very much evident. Im not going to pretend that I know who the director, Sam Wood was, but he made this film work for me. Brilliant.
Wyn Strafford: Until you can get another job...
Kitty Foyle: What do you mean?
Wyn Strafford: Why don't I just keep you on the payroll? It's no more than fair -.
Kitty Foyle: Just a minute, Wyn. You needn't worry about me. I'm free, white and 21... almost. And I'll go on loving you from here on out... or until I stop loving you. But nobody owes a thing to Kitty Foyle, except Kitty Foyle.
