Danny (Cary Grant) is a detective who is

Danny (Cary Grant) is a detective who is currently investigating a jewelry theft. His girlfriend, Eve (Joan Bennett), is a sassy women who works as a manicurist but recently has started a career as a investigative reporter. The two of them work together, from there respective professions, to solve what turns out to be a criminal ring of jewelery theifs, who are also responsible for the murder of a baby in central park. Big Brown Eyes is a very unique film in that its a zany witty comedy with a few quite dark thrilling moments. I mean, what type of comedy murders a baby? The dialogue is rather unique in that the characters essentially are never direct towards one and other, at least compared to most films. Cary Grant and Joan Bennet are just so full of energy and this dialogue feels so natural because of this. Both these actors have so much charisma, particularly in this movie, that you cant help but love them. Aesthetically is rather standard but it does have some fun stylistic segments. For example, there are three or so segments in which we are shown various characters at slanted camera angles in quick-cut rapid succession as they gossip in a beauty parlor about the current events which are taking place. It's just one stylistic moment which personofies just how playful, hectic and fun this film is.
