There Goes the Bride

A businessman's daughter runs away from an arranged marriage, only to find herself penniless and suspected of theft after she becomes the victim of a bag thief in the train. When she refuses to tell him who she really is, her accuser decides to take her home where he can keep an eye on her until 12 o'clock the next day, the time at which she has calculated that it will be safe to tell the truth! But when his fiancée arrives unexpectedly and then his 'guest' is mistaken for her, it all gets rather embarrassing...

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

There are obvious similarities between this and America's "It Happened One Night". Preparing to marry a pompous businessman she can't stand to cinch a deal for her father, Jessie Matthews looks at the picture of her fiancée, sticks her tongue out, and bolts. The groom is humiliated, the father is devastated, and she is robbed while hiding out on a train far away. Believing that the sleeping man (Owen Nares)opposite her has her purse (it's actually his briefcase), she tries to retrieve it, and he accuses her of robbing him. Holding her for the police, he can't keep her in his grasp (she slips away from him in a most clever way), yet ends up finding her in his car anyway. He is forced to take her back to his pad, has lots of explaining to do when his fiancée (Carol Goodner) shows up, and even more when his society pals arrive and think Matthews is the girl he's engaged to.Quick moving comedy with a few snappy songs, this is a rare glimpse into what American audiences were missing in areas that did not get these British imports. Matthews would later gain some exposure with classics like "Evergreen", "First a Girl" and "It's Love Again", but outside of New York City, pretty much nobody in the United States even knew who she was. She has a sparkling personality, yet unlike other British actresses who made it big here, never had an interest in crossing over to Hollywood. Fortunately, we're getting to discover her now, and it is obvious that she is worth discovering. Some of the men may seem a bit pompous, or their levels of humor like something from outer space, but with a renewed interest in British culture (thanks to the Merchant Ivory films of the 1980's and 1990's and the BBC series "Downton Abbey"), us Yanks are taking pleasure in seeing sides of British society we hadn't been interested in before. Oh, and by the way, I think this is much more entertaining than the somewhat overlong "It Happened One Night", even with the manly Gable and the leg-exposing Colbert.

When Jessie was filming this movie she was at the studio from 7am until 6pm, then travelling to the Gaiety Theatre in London, where she was starring in the stage production of "Hold My Hand", getting home at midnight. Next morning she would be up at 6am to start over. Director Albert De Courville was an eccentric slave driver. So if Jessie Matthews was accused of over-acting she was probably close to hysterics.She was always grateful to De Courville for giving her a chance in "There Goes the Bride" because none of the studio bosses wanted her. When they saw the finished film that was another story - Victor Saville thought she was the find of the year.Jessie is a delight in this comedy of mistaken identity. She plays Annette Marquand, an heiress, who runs away on the day of her wedding. She meets Owen Nare (almost 20 years her senior) who mistakes her for a thief, after an incident on the train. She is mistaken for his fiancée by his friends and they host a party for her. Then his real fiancée turns up.It is a bright little comedy that Jessie runs away with.There are some musical numbers. "I'll Stay With You" - Jessie sings and dances at the apartment. At the party with the great Carroll Gibbons and His Savoy Orpheans providing the music Jessie sings "I'm Looking for You" and is a big hit. (David Niven can be glimpsed standing around the table at the party). I don't know why it was set in Paris when they are all so terribly British.

Another enjoyable Jessie Matthews' movie! I didn't know she was in it till I started to watch it. I don't share the view she was over-acting.She's just got an impish effervescence about her contributions in light-hearted musicals & comic situations of farce & misunderstandings, near-misses & genuine harmless fun that she excelled herself in! I simply don't understand why she was not a more famous & more sought after talent! Probably it's because her movies were made in the 1930s & in black & white. This doesn't detract from quality cinema! All of her movies I've seen are enjoyable. This is no exception!

"There goes the Bride" is essentially and simply a farce (albeit one set -- for no very clear reason -- in France). As such, the plot makes about as much sense as in any other of the many films in which the heroine proves herself irresistible by making the leading man's life a complete misery; and it contrives to be considerably less irritating than most of them.As the pert and wilful Annette, Jessie Matthews is all big eyes and eloquent reaction; it is interesting to note that she has already established the character without any real dialogue to speak of until after the first few scenes. In fact, for an early sound film this shows a notable willingness to tell its story through visuals in addition to the laughs obtained by an often genuinely funny script; there were moments when the audience were literally shouting with laughter.It has to be said that Miss Matthews, in her first leading screen role, sometimes overacts. If she were not already in possession of top billing one might assume that she is doing her best here to steal the show! However, it is hard to say where the actress's cinematic inexperience begins and the impudent Annette's 'putting on an act' ends; certainly her charm is more than enough to excuse any exaggeration. Conversely, Owen Nares has been criticised for lack of charisma, although I couldn't see it -- I did notice one or two flat line readings on his part that sounded as if they should have gone for a retake.All in all I found this surprisingly good entertainment: undemanding fluff in a polished production that manages to be witty without being annoying, ridiculous without stupidity, and sneaks in a good deal of conscious naughtiness into the bargain. I'm frankly amazed that this apparently rated a 'U' rather than an 'A' ('Adult') certificate on release, as I'd have thought parts of it were quite risqué!
