Millicent Jordan is pre-occupied with the plans she is making for a high-class dinner party. Her husband Oliver is in failing health, and he is also worried because someone is trying to buy up the stock in his shipping business - even his old friend Carlotta wants to sell her stock. Hoping to get help from businessman Dan Packard, he persuades Millicent, against her wishes, to invite Packard and his wife to the dinner. As Oliver's problems get worse, Millicent is increasingly quick-tempered because the plans for the party are not going smoothly. As the time for the dinner approaches, it appears that the hosts and the guests will all have plenty on their minds.
Leave your thoughts about Dinner at Eight.
| Kalamazoo GazetteJames Sanfordthe kind of smart, upscale adult comedy-drama that would never get made these days |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyTaking advantage of MGM's talent pool, George Cukor directed this witty 1933 comedy with a big-gun cast that includes Marie Dressler, John Barrymore, Wallace Beery, and Jean Harlow. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeFeels like a very good, very entertaining movie, but Grand Hotel feels like something truly special. However, the good in Dinner at Eight is very good indeed. |
| Las Vegas Review-JournalCarol ClingScintillating '30s comedy with an all-star cast and quip-happy script. |
| Slant MagazineJeremiah KippThe dinner party that closes Dinner at Eight wouldn't feel like dancing at the end of the world without Renault's final gesture. |
| Film Geek CentralAustin KennedyIt's a little rough around the edges, but the performances from these legendary actors really make this movie worthy of your time |
| Hollywood ReporterStaffWhat this business needs, what theaters must have, what fans rush to pay their money for is an ATTRACTION and [MGM] have certainly gone the limit in giving them one with this production. That the industry will be better off as a result of it. |
| CinePassionFernando F. CroceA deluxe flipbook of caricatures, a blatant pageant of studio thoroughbreds, a study of tuxedoed, bejeweled pretense |
| User ReviewAndrew CThis story has a lot going for it. A lot of different characters. Love it |
| User ReviewLouise BGreat movie with so many stars! I saw this on the essentials on TCM and it is just that, an essential for movie lovers. You just can't get this many stars together for one great movie now! The cast came together and worked perfectly. The story is great and interesting. If you haven't seen it you should! |
