Osborne, Robert. Outro to the Turner Classic Movies showing of Trouble in Paradise (March 31, 2011) A question on versioning: Is part 2 complete but just receiving bug fixes? I see it's at version 1.2. Or would version 2.0 indicate that part 2 is complete? When she returned to Iowa after her first trip to St. John, Irene realized the home she worked so hard to restore was “dark, overwrought, suffocating . . . and lonely.” So as Troubles in Paradise opens, she just settled in at the villa on St. John. Baker and Cash have also decided to take up residence on the island, with Baker making plans to enroll his son in school there. As a storm gathers strength in the Atlantic, surprises are in store for the Steeles: help from a mysterious source, and a new beginning in the paradise that has become their home. At last all will be revealed about the secrets and lies that brought Irene and her sons to St. John — and the truth that transformed them all. Book Club Questions for Troubles in Paradise I am curious what you all think about how this family decided to set their lives in St. John—especially after everything Russell had done. You would think they would want to stay far away from there. But then again, it’s probably hard to resist moving to somewhere like St. John and starting over.Through palpable tension balanced with glimmers of hope, Hoover beautifully captures the heartbreak and joy of starting over.

Zoom in on the Countess looking at a newspaper. She lowers it and looks at Monescu. They talk about the opera. They talk about a previous incident Monescu was involved in. He remembers everything about it and gives her a kiss. He tells her everything will be alright. Prosperity is just around the corner. She gets up and says for him to read the newspaper. They see the reward amount and he ponders what he would have gotten for selling it. She tells him to return the purse for the 20,000 francs. Sometimes character interactions can feel "too easy", especially early on. I'd like to see some angst about the dire or incestuous situation characters find themselves in. Although this point is admittedly subjective and has some story explanations eventually.Trouble in Paradise was named by the National Board of Review as one of the top 10 films of 1932. [3] Preservation [ edit ] The kiss is a bit antiseptic, with Marshall leaning in without opening his mouth in the slightest, but that dialog leading up to it, with their faces about two inches away from each other, and Francis's languid sultriness, is fantastic. Later, when Marshall asks her why she wants to leave, she says "Because I want to make it tough for you," with a perfect emphasis on the 'T' in tough. Lubitsch then shows them in the mirror as she says "We have a long time ahead of us, Gaston. Weeks, months, years", rapidly switching to another mirror and then their shadows on those last two words. It's brilliant. Herbert Marshall and Miriam Hopkins are a couple of world-class thieves who meet in Venice and fall for each other's skill. They get jobs working for the rich heiress of a perfume company (Kay Francis), hoping to fleece her. Things get complicated when Marshall starts falling for Francis. It's a pretty simple premise, and I have to warn you, the film has better form than plot. There is not a lot of realism in Francis's utter disregard for money - how much she spends, how willing she is to delegate control, how little she cares when she's ripped off - but the film isn't meant to be realistic. Colet meets with the board member. The board member tells her that there are papers she must attend to herself. He tells her he was a school friend of her husband. He asks who Gaston is and she says he is her secretary. Colet asks Jacques to bring Gaston in.

Francis: "You like me. In fact, you're crazy about me. Otherwise, you wouldn't think about my reputation. Isn't that so? But incidentally, I don't like you. I don't like you at all. And I wouldn't hesitate one instant to ruin your reputation...(snaps fingers).. like that." Made before effective enforcement of the Production Code, the film is an example of pre-Code cinema containing adult themes and sexual innuendo that was not permitted under the Code. In 1935, when the Production Code was being enforced, the film was not approved for reissue, [4] and it was not seen again until 1968. [7] Paramount was again rejected in 1943, when the studio wanted to make a musical version of the film. [4] I couldn't get it working either. I found a work-around for it though. If you search games categorized as erotic and sort for top rated all time you should find one called Harem Hotel pretty close to the top.

Filiba says he knows he never met that man. He says it's driving him crazy that Gaston asked if they met. Filiba confronts him and before he can finish what he wanted to say, Jacques tells Gaston that Colet wants to see him.

Having observed Mariette open her private safe (and memorized the combination), Gaston persuades her that she should keep a large sum there, including half of her next dividend installment. Mariette begins to flirt with Gaston, and he begins to have feelings for her.
