MOVIE REVIEW:- Goodbye My Fancy (1951)
U.S. Representative Agatha Reed (Crawford) returns to her alma mater to receive an honorary degree. Reed was expelled from the school years earlier for participating in an all-night date with young professor, Dr. James Merrill (Young), now the university president. The romantic fires are rekindled when the two meet. Matt Cole (Lovejoy), a photographer who loves Reed, believes her feeling for Merrill is simply an unresolved hold-over from her girlhood and follows her to the school.
A subplot involves Reed embroiled in a university matter over progressive teaching methods with Dr. Pitt (Morgan Farley), trustee Claude Griswold (Howard St. John) and his wife Ellen Griswold (Lurene Tuttle). After a series of misunderstandings, Reed realizes she belongs with Cole and should put away her romantic fancies of Merrill. Other players in the film include Eve Arden, Janice Rule, and Ellen Corby.
Based on a play by Fay Kanin, this comedy drama follows a successful congresswoman's emotional journey back to her alma mater. When Agatha Reed (Joan Crawford) is offered an honorary degree at her former college, she is forced to remember the reason she was expelled to begin with. Nearly twenty years prior, Agatha (Crawford) had an affair with Dr. James Merrill (Robert Young), one of her professors. After her departure, Dr. Merrill (Young) slowly rose through the ranks, eventually becoming the president of the school. Despite having left under less than desirable circumstances, Agatha is excited to see him and hopes to rekindle their relationship. Meanwhile, newspaper reporter Matt Cole (Frank Lovejoy), not only follow's Agatha to her former university, but unsucessfully proposes marriage. Unfortunately for him, the alumna's eyes are set firmly towards her old flame. However, once Matt (Lovejoy) and Agatha team up in a passionate attempt to update the school's outdated curriculum, she realizes who she truly loves.
