Review :

There are no words to describe how disappointed I am

I love Noel Coward, so I was excited to see "Meet Me Tonight," a 1952 film, based on the play, comprising three separate stories and including some excellent actors: Valerie Hobson, Stanley Holloway, Nigel Patrick, Jessie Royce Landis, and others.

Unfortunately, the stories were filled with unpleasant characters and a lot of yelling and insults. The second one especially was a real downer.

The first story, about two lousy music hall performers (Kay Walsh and Ted Ray), didn't rely on us just taking Coward's word for it that they were bad - we saw every number. Intolerable.

The last story should have worked, but it doesn't, mostly due to the annoying performance of Jessie Royce Landis.

Not particularly well directed, in some cases not particularly well acted, and loathe as I am to say it, not particularly well written. It was nice to see the lovely Valerie Hobson, though. And for that, "Meet Me Tonight" gets a 6.
