Critic Reviews for Hands Across the Table
All Critics (5) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (1)
Smart-mouthed romance...
I had a swell time at it.
... never that funny or intelligent as it appears to be at first glance.
[Leisen] keeps things moving at a nice pace, and his attention to detail in the sets and costumes makes the film a joy to look at.
Audience Reviews for Hands Across the Table
Breezy lark with a sparkling Carole Lombard. She and Fred work well together as always and if you only know him from his years as the retiring dad on My Three Sons he's quite dishy here. Ralph Bellamy is the odd man out again but at lest his Allen is afforded some dignity here instead of being the poor sap he usually got stuck playing.
Super Reviewer
Hands Across the Table is a variation on probably the most oft-recycled of all screwball plots, that of the gold-digger whose schemes are derailed by the inconvenient intervention of true love. Carole Lombard, as a designing manicurist, and Fred MacMurray, as the penniless playboy the former mistakes for her meal ticket, are both wonderful, but there's something odd about the tone of the picture, evidenced by the fact that our sadness for Ralph Bellamy, Lombard's unrequited suitor, outweighs our happiness for Lombard and MacMurray at the close.
