Plots(1)
Accident? Or murder? A love-nest death is the focus of a headline-grabbing trial. But the real story may be going on in the jury room, where a colorful cross-section of American citizens quip and quibble their way through deliberations - and where a single woman (Ginger Rogers) and a married man (Dennis Morgan) begin to fall in love. The stars of Kitty Foyle, the film that earned Rogers a 1940 Best Actress Oscar, show they still have plenty of screen chemistry in this engaging blend of romance, comedy and courtroom thriller. Leading the fine supporting cast is Thelma Ritter, who shines in a hilarious turn as a dumb-bunny juror who can't decide if the defendant is guilty because "I wasn't there!"
