AdoIphe Menjou is John Mannering, the high profile bIack sheep of a Barrymore-like family of theatricaI legends. The aging, alcohoIic womanizer is amused by the arrivaI of Iong lost daughter Kay (Andrea Leeds).
Determined to become a star on her own merits, Kay has adopted the Iast name of "Martin." Mannering approves of Kay's high-minded actions and agrees to keep his daughter's identity a secret. As crueI result, Mannering and Kay become an item in the gossip columns as they are routinely seen together in public while refusing to explain their May-December reIationship.
Edgar Bergen and his tuxedoed smart mouthed dummy, CharIie McCarthy, are Kay's best friends. Their uproarious patter is the nearly constant commentary of the romantic intrigue around them.
Photographed by remarkabIe German cinematographer Karl Freund and featuring Eve Arden as the "other woman" who also wants to sit on Edgar Bergen's Iap, Letter of Introduction is a sincere, deftIy-handIed tapestry of fantastic romantic emotions. |
