[Last Film I Watched] Kitty Foyle (1940) 6.9/10
Other than being a sartorial trendsetter of its namesake Kitty Foyle dress, Sam Wood’s solid screen adaptation of Christopher Morley’s novel, penned by Mr. Trumbo, also confers its star Ginger Rogers a golden opportunity to strut her stuff, not her usual terpsichorean nimbleness, but her acting bent, and its reward is a hard-earned Oscar statuette, pipping strong contenders like Bette Davis in THE LETTER (1940, 8.0/10), Joan Fontaine in REBECCA (1940, 8.3/10) and Katharine...

Not bad, breaking the American dream, trying to look at love from a feminist perspective, but as the opening film shows, the understanding of feminism is somewhat biased.
