The Guy Who Came Back and The Settlement Conundrum
The piece reviews two films. The first centers on a settlement and a woman who wavers in romance with Ethel Barrymore as a bedridden matriarchal figure and Ann Dvorak as a wary romancer as Zachary Scott schemes. The second film stars Paul Douglas in a footballer turned wanderer tale with Joan Bennett Linda Darnell and Don DeFore, but the reviewer finds the plot tired despite a strong cast.
