Fontaine at her comedic best

Joan Fontaine is wonderful in this delightful comedy about a woman who appears to attract men like flies!!! She is about to run off with the man she loves, when he discovers all the so-called 'loose ends' that she has left behind. I am a big fan of Fontaine and this film is one of her best. Watch the way she wraps each man around her little finger without even realising it!! Comes highly recommended.

Joan goodness! With handsome leading men!

George Brent was my fave of the guys.

And the star of the movie being a Joan, playing a Susan who is cast in a stage production of Joan of Arc- wasn't expecting that!

Joan of Arc follows me, I swear. There's some connection between us! Me and the name Joan, it's a big deal! The only thing it was missing was an "Alice in Wonderland" mention (but there is an Alice Flemming in an uncredited role- so Alice-Joan connections strike again!)!

Not one of my favorites. It kind of dragged for me, though maybe I just haven't been in the mood for it. This seems like a part perfect for Jean Arthur though, and I kept wishing it were her. In certain parts of the film, Joan looks like Jean too! Fun fact: Jean is a variation of the name Joan!'

Not the best, but still good. Glad I saw it.

Rarely shown Fontaine comedy is a sparkling gem...

Joan Fontaine was so often cast in moody, introspective roles in somber dramas that her prowess in comedy was seldom explored. Here it certainly is--she gets the chance to play a woman who is entirely different in the eyes of three men who loved her in the past (George Brent, Don deFore and Dennis O'Keefe)--and are now telling their stories to the man about to marry her (Walter Abel). In flashback we see Susan as a plain-Jane who becomes an actressy type, an intellectual and a glamorous sophisticate. It's a pleasure to see Fontaine enjoying herself in a demanding comedy role for a change--with excellent support from her co-stars, particularly George Brent as an ex-husband. Rarely shown on TV, it's one you have to catch on one of the cable channels and well worth viewing.

Joan Fontaine is brilliant

Joan Fontaine shines brilliantly in one of her rare comedies. She plays Susan who is pursued by four different men, each with distinct personalities. As she adapts to each of her suitors personalities, we see a different Susan and a delightful Joan Fontaine. I highly recommend this film to anyone who enjoys witty dialogue, a brisk paced film. super performances by a supporting cast, and most especially anyone who loves clever story lines. Edith Head designed the clothes Ms. Fontaine wears and they are to die for. It is not available on video, so tape it when it comes on cable. Every once in a while you can purchase it on Ebay. Joan Fontaine is simply great in this movie.

Joan Fontaine gets to be silly

Obviously, "The Affairs of Susan" has some dated depictions of gender relations. But aside from that, it's a funny movie, with Joan Fontaine playing a woman whose fiancé (Walter Abel) finds out about her previous relationships. All her previous lovers have a story about her wacky antics. The humor is more subtle than what we're used to, but when it bubbles up, there's plenty of laughs to be had! While not the greatest comedy ever, it's still one that you're bound to enjoy. I sure did. It received an Academy Award nomination for Best Story but lost to "The House on 92nd Street" (which was actually the more important movie that year).

Zitate
Susan Darell: Earlier I used to dress frivolously, now I dress to attract only one man.
Richard Aiken: Oh Yeah?
Susan Darell: That was truthful, but not honest.
Roger Berton: Double talk
Susan Darell: Not double talk. When a woman dresses to attract all men, it isn't honest but truthful. When she dresses to appeal to only one man, that's not truthful, but it's honest.
Roger Berton: Who is the man?
Susan Darell: What man?
Roger Berton: The man you are dressing honestly for, so that you would not be truthful.
