Francis Lederer reportedly walked out on Break of Hearts after a few days of filming, claiming that Katharine Hepburn was given "all the breaks in camera angles." There is some truth to the accusation: Hepburn does steal what there is to steal here but it was this kind of cinematic malarkey that finally prompted exasperated exhibitors to name her "box office poison." Break of Hearts, truth be told, is a decidedly dated museum piece with very little entertainment value.
