  • "This is an adaptation of the then-popular rustic comedy about a widowed, well-to-do farmer's search for a new bride. Hitchcock is quite successful in rendering the play in cinematic terms with effective use of close-ups and near direct address by actors to the camera. Considering its origin, inter-titles are relatively few. A luncheon party becomes one of Hitchcock's few excursions into slapstick."@en
