In addition to credit for producing and directing Love Affair, McCarey gets credit, with Mildred Cram, for the original story. As close to a one-man show as any $850,000 picture can be, Love Affair is pleasantly free from the assembly-belt characteristics that mar many . Hollywood products. It also exhibits the need for the merciless editing that few directors...
