Featured review
The lies and deceit of the public relations man!
Curiously sedate and middle-of-the-road drama about cutthroat big business in the ad agency game. Dana Andrews plays hot-shot, ambitious public relations whiz in New York City who sees a fast track to the top: build up a second-string advertising firm in league with a dairy subsidiary to his largest account, Associated Dairy Corp., thereby giving himself an entrance to the big money when the time is right. Eleanor Parker plays the struggling agency's president-by-default who gets a make-over; Jeanne Crain plays a "jilted girl reporter" who may be trying to stab sometime-boyfriend Andrews in the back. This is one of many films which teamed Andrews with Crain, and they are very comfortable together, but the other performers fare much better with this minor material. Parker, in particular, brings some real flair to her role, Eddie Albert is very good as a befuddled corporation head, and Kathleen Freeman is terrific as the world's most efficient secretary. There's a bit of bounce in the direction and a terrific score by Harry Sukman, yet one gets the distinct feeling this was just a throwaway flick for 20th Century-Fox. The set designs (with a fetish for ships) and the art direction are dull, and the movie seems underpopulated and cumbersome. ** from ****
