Very disappointing film after the wonderful "Four Daughters" made in 1938.
Claude Rains and May Robson do well in their parts as brother and sister. They are given little help but some weak written material.
Everyone seems to be investing in Florida land and when a hurricane ravages the land, everyone is wiped out. Rains is forced to sell the family house of 40+ years and move with Robson to a small apartment.
The sisters sulk, three of them have become mothers and two have been somewhat unfaithful with the other sister's husband.
Everything seems to get conveniently tied in as Rains is called upon to conduct an orchestra playing Beethoven. It's just a little too neat of a package, especially when they find their house intact in another part of the neighborhood. The builder who bought it from them just needed the land.
Robson delivers the best lines here.
