Complete Surrender

December 5th, 2005 at 20:31 (1940s)

Here we see the main female character taking a small bottle of a perfume named Complete Surrender out of a small compartment of a car. She then puts something of this perfume on a handkerchief and flutters it towards uncle Willie, who later pinches her bottom:

One of the male protagonists demanded a $100,000 salary, which was a huge amount in the early 40s. But instead of keeping it all for himself he donated his entire earnings to the British War Relief Fund.
Who achieved such a large salary and what’s the name of the movie?

  1. “The time to make up your mind about people is never”

    One of the wisest things ever said in a movie! In this case “The Philadelphia Story” - my spelling is getting better by the day.

    As for the protagonist who got the $100,000 salary, it was Cary Grant appearing as C.K. Dexter Haven, but then since we will never get this kind of money why should we care!


  2. Right again…
    I just mentioned the $100,000 salary to have a comparison to what so called movie stars today make. And with $100,000 for a whole movie they certainly don’t get out of bed. In spite of the money invested in today’s movies they aren’t better…most often they are worse.
