Through the years I have read the novel a dozen times and the film version is fine also. Ingrid Bergman is good as the mysterious adventuress och Gary Cooper matches her well.

Ingrid, Gary and Max Steiners Love Theme
30 Aug 2001
Ingrid is more beautiful than ever; Gary is perfect as "that Texas" out for revenge and fortune by hook or crook. As Clio and "Cleent", in her restored French Quarter house, when they stroll in her small garden and the lovely Steiner love theme plays, it is a romantics dream. ...if you love beautiful costumes, sets, and the romantic films from the golden era, you will like this movie.
When the little lawyer sent by her fathers aristocratic family comes to her house to buy her off and get her out of town, she bests him in the negotiations. A Magic Movie Moment comes when he looks at her with a small smile and says "may I say - you are very -- beautiful?" And she says with a beautiful, wicked smile "Yes, isn't it lucky?" You want to say YES!! You go girl!
Florence Bates as the grand dame in Saratoga steals every scene she is in. Jerry Austin as the dwarf "Pepito" jack-of-all-trades, is fun and I think brings dignity to the role. Flora Robson is quite good as the maid/companion and received an academy award nomination.
But it is the romantic French Quarter, the wide veranda at the Saratoga hotel, with all the old biddies rocking and gossiping; and Clio and Clint, two rogues, and their love story that make this so much fun to watch. Just relax and enjoy.

Very Entertaining
5 Nov 2001
This movie is fun and entertaining, with Ingrid Bergman giving a wonderful performance as Clio, showing just how talented and versatile she is. Gary Cooper is also good in a very typical Cooper role as a Texas cowboy. The movie has some very witty and sparkling dialogue, with Bergman having some of the best lines, and the best scenes are between her and Cooper. A must-see for Bergman fans.
