THE GIFT OF LOVE (1958) - ♦♦

Directed by - Jean Negulesco

Written by - Luther Davis (based on an article by Nelia Gardner White)

Starring - Lauren Bacall, Robert Stack

 

"A woman, who develops a heart condition, decides to adopt a girl so as not to leave her husband alone, but struggles to make the two get along, due to the man’s self absorbed nature. Bacall is an angelic presence on the screen, but her performance is wasted on this film that is too heavily and obviously melodramatic."
