People Will Talk (1951 Joseph Mankiewicz & scr)

Most interesting ethical drama with comic moments, Cary Grant in excellent, self-assured form. Great cast includes Jeanne Crain, Finlay Currie, Hume Cronyn, Walter Slezak (fun as professor).

Shot by Milton Krasner for Fox. Referring to the rough collie as 'Pal' is surely an in-joke (Lassie's original dog) - loved the way he gets adopted by Currie who in turn has been adopted, also the fight between friends over a railway set.
