Henry Van Cleve presents himself at the gates of Hell only to find he is closely vetted on his qualifications for entry.

Louis Calhern: Perfect casting as Gene Tierney's father. Great profile, hawk nose, regal bearing. I'm a long-time fan. Thanks for posting this movie. DBB - @Tuesday, September 12, 2017 2:38 AM

"If you'd walked into a restaurant I would've become a waiter, if you'd walked into a burning building I'dve become a fireman, if you'd walked into an elevator I'dve stopped it between two floors and we've spent the rest of our lives there... Please forgive me but you can't walk out of my life like that" Love that sentimental dialogue! - @Friday, July 25, 2008 7:05 AM
