Directed by Frank Capra, this film adapts the 1941 play of the same name from playwright Joseph Kesselring. Leaving Boris Karloff behind on Broadway, the film keeps the play's stars Josephine Hull, Jean Adair and John Alexander, replacing Karloff with Raymond Massey. And, of course, Cary Grant is here too!
