At home he requires a specially...
...scheme, Leo G. Carroll (Angel Street, The Late George Apley) is adroit as always, but he cannot do much more than brighten things up the way flowers do a sickroom. Everything in Jenny Kissed Me is well meant and almost nothing is well handled: it dawdles when it should skip, and sits gabbily on when it should make its excuses...
