I sat through this whole movie - it was late, and my eyes were too tired to read - wondering: How could MGM's bosses have signed off on this script???? It is flatter than flat, and features two main characters who are very unsympathetic. The minor characters are uninteresting, ditto the plot.The direction, by Norman Z. McLeod, is also completely flat - though I'm not sure what even the best of directors could have done with this script, other than to refuse to direct it.There are a lot of talented people involved in this movie, but their talent goes unused here. Some of the other reviewers on here appear to have enjoyed this movie. I wanted to like it, since I am a big fan of Greer Garson. To me, however, this is a real turkey with no redeeming qualities.

This was a high budget film featuring some of the best Stars MGM had available. Considering what it should have been, it ended up being very disappointing.A large part of the problem is that the script depends on the sexual dynamics between Greer Garson's character and both Robert Taylor and Lew Ayers. Sadly, at least in this picture, Garson has absolutely no sex appeal. The film falls completely flat in the scenes she shares with Robert Taylor. There is no chemistry between the two leads. Garson poses through every scene articulating her lines ever so carefully. She ends up becoming very very boring.The other problem with the picture is a preposterous plot point which no one would believe in a minute. Though, I would encourage you to listen carefully to the line Garson delivers at the very end of the film.Should you watch the film? I think it is worth watching simply because it features Robert Taylor and Greer Garson in their prime. But do have realistic expectations.

This is a true Classic Film from 1939 and both Robert Taylor and Greer Garson were very young and just starting their careers with MGM. This was a very stupid story that portrayed plenty of Martini Drinking and I think the director and producer did the same while working on this film. Robert Taylor,(Jeffrey Holland),"Killers of Kilimanjaro",'59, fell in love with Greer Garson,(Linda Bronson Holland),"Random Harvest",'42, and had plenty of up's and down's with their marriage. Lew Ayres, (Schuyler Ames),"Love Boat",'81 was also deeply in love with Linda and was going to marry her and his good buddy, Jeff stole her away from him. There are background scenes of the New York World's Fair of 1939, and the plot goes around and around like an old time Merry-go-round. Billie Burke plays the mother to Jeffrey Holland and does a very comical role, with the high voice she used in the Wizard of Oz, 1939 as the Good Witch. Some of the friends of Jeffrey say that his eyes look like Rainbows and changed color every once in a while. Try to REMEMBER, this was a 1939 film and just take it from THERE !

After Greer Garson made her film debut in "Goodbye, Mr. Chips," she was awarded an Academy Award nomination and gained international stardom. Her second film was "Remember?" which I'm sure Miss Garson would rather have "forgotten." A silly script that totally wastes the talents of not only Garson but Robert Taylor and Lew Ayres as well.
