Always Together

ALWAYS TOGETHER is a cute movie with a clever plot device, the conclusion never seems preordained. Robert Hutton is fine for the part of ne'er-do-well writer Donn Masters, tossing aside what one would think was the proper relationship between masculinity and money in a coupling. Joyce Reynolds has the eyes of star-crossed movie-goer Jane Barker, who comes by a huge sum goes through the film confabulating that incredible reality with the drama of the latest picture.

She gets the money from multi-millionaire Jonathan Turner, with Cecil Kellaway performing splendidly in that role. Having given it, through his attorney, Timothy J. Bull (Ernest Truex, Turner finds he's not going to die and sets about to go to great lengths to get his money back.

Without giving away the ending, it is very clever. The millionaire and his attorney are absorbed by the fantasy, while Jane and Donn confront their new reality.

There are gaps in the story, leaps of plausibility, but it is after all a movie, and a fun one at that. Remember, Joyce Reynolds had beautiful eyes, and the movie is about what Jane Barker sees and how she sees it.
