Fay Bainter was wonderful in this, these roles suited her well. I also read that she was very well liked in Hollywood and very charitable ❤

These type of shows were as TV was like back in the early days when TV was for the rich folk who lived in major cities . Child actress Denise Alexander of General Hospital later of TV soap fame and Bruce Gordon later of The Untoucables TV series were among the cast who supported the lead , distiguished Oscar winning Ms Fay Bainter .

05:27 could see the camera behind the door...I loved the one with Ethel Barrymore as the Kind Lady. .

I love sinister deep-voiced Hilda Vaughn who played the villainous. She also played Jean Harlow’s blackmailing maid in Dinner at Eight and other various characters - some of them very nice! - through the years.

As the Oscar winner the previous year in the same category Fay Bainter presented AA actress Hattie Mc Daniel the 1939 Oscar for Best Supporting Actress , a part of history .
