“BETWEEN TWO WOMEN”
With a cast comprising leads in Franchot Tone, Maureen O’Sullivan and Virginia Bruce, “Between Two Women” is extremely well staged and acted, with the leads doing some of their best work to date, and minor characters fill all the requirements efficiently. Triangle drama, though a background fourth makes it nearly a quartette, with Tone in the character of a young doctor absorbed in his work at the hospital, and harmonising beautifully with the devoted nurse, Maureen O’Sullivan (who is handicapped by that “fourth,” Anthony Nace, exemplifying nicely a drunken husband) Into this comes playgirl Virginia Bruce for an operation, resulting from an accident, and in return for Tone’s surgery, she does some clever work on him, obtaining his affection. In spite cf his love for Maureen, he marries the socialite, and then his troubles begin. The film has many factors which raise it above the usual level of hospital films.
