Susan and God

Drama / komedie, USA, 1940, 117 min.



Barrie Trexel rushes to the docks to meet his estranged wife Susan when he learns that she is returning home from Europe. Susan, who wants a divorce from Barrie, a man driven to drink by his wife's insensitivity, avoids him and takes refuge at the country home of her friend, Irene Burroughs. There, Susan begins spouting the religious fadism that she has picked up from Lady Millicent Wigstaff, and urges her friends to be honest about their relationships. While Susan insists that Irene and her lover Mike are unsuited for each other and that the beautiful young Leonara should leave her elderly husband Hutchie and return to the stage, Barrie appears and begs his wife's forgiveness. Barrie pleads with Susan to heed her own words and give him another chance for the sake of their daughter Blossom, offering to grant Susan a divorce if he takes another drink. Certain that Barrie will be unable to keep his part of the bargain, Susan agrees. Gradually, Susan comes to realize that her daughter really needs her, but when Lady Wigstaff summons Susan to Newport on the day of Blossom's big birthday party, Susan decides to go. Susan's selfishness prompts Barrie to begin drinking again, and he asks Charlotte, an old friend who has always loved Barrie, to marry him. At the railroad station, Susan realizes that she has acted selfishly and that the love of her family is the most important thing in her life, and she returns home. Charlotte, realizing that Susan still loves Barrie, rejects his proposal, and Susan begs Barrie for another chance.
