He scratched her tender skin and found a savage!

Overview

Tom Collier has had a great relationship with Daisy, but when he decides to marry, it is not Daisy whom he asks, it is Cecelia. After the marriage, Tom is bored with the social scene and the obligations of his life. He publishes books that will sell, not books that he wants to write. Even worse, he has his old friend working as a butler and Cecelia wants him fired. When Tom tries to get back together with Daisy to renew the feelings that he once felt, Daisy turns the tables on him and leaves to protect both of them.

    Leslie Howard certainly had a star quality about him, and he demonstrates that with aplomb here, but the story is just, well, wet... He is caught in a seemingly genuine love triangle between "Daisy" (Ann Harding") and wife "Cecelia" (Myrna Loy) and spends much of the time, aided ably by permanently sozzled butler "Red" (William Gargan) vacillating - occasionally comically - as he treads the fine line between the pair of them.
