The Hollywood Screen Directors presents some opinions on a lady. The motion picture romance, The Affairs of Susan, starring Joan Fontaine in her original role.
My name is Roger Burton, that's right, the Broadway producer. So you see, I should know a little about women. And I knew Susan. Greatest acting talent I ever discovered is a matter of fact I married her.
I'm sorry to say we have since been divorced. I'm Bill Antony, a writer. I didn't marry Susan. I don't believe in marriage. But to me, Susan was the essence of all women. Intelligent, brave, courageous, and understanding comrade, a kindred spirit.
My words and name, Texas, that's right oil well. I recognize no Susan better than any of them. To me she was just a real out of door girl at heart. All this New York night club in infancy living wasn't nothing but a substitute for the simple backwoods life that she really wanted. We was kind of engaged, you know.
Well, that's all very well, gentlemen, but I'm the man that's going to marry Susan. Richard Aiken. And to me, Susan is a chief. Well, that's it. I'm confused. And that's why I've asked you to come here, gentlemen.
Roger, Mike, Bill, I want you to tell me everything you know about Susan. What is this? A new version of Kiss and Tell? Oh, no, no, of course not, Bill. But well, at midnight, Susan and I will be on the plane for California.
We were being married at my mother's house in Pasadena, you know. And I'm worried. I'm beginning to think I don't really know the girl I'm marrying. I thought you respected Susan. I thought you loved her.
