Casanova Brown (1944 Sam Wood)

Quite an odd film, especially when Gary Cooper enters maternity hospital, then steals a baby. Yes. It was written by Nunnally Johnson from Floyd Dell's play. Teresa Wright isn't in it enough. With Frank Morgan (as the most enjoyable character, a sort of family-hating fraudster), Patricia Collinge, Anita Louise, Mary Treen, Emory Parnell, Halliwell Hobbes.

Shot by John Seitz. An Independent picture. Frankly, without the leads it would be a dud.
