Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Susan and God is a 1940 film directed by George Cukor.Susan (Joan Crawford), a pampered socialite, returns from a trip to Europe filled with a new enthusiasm for religion. She is a devotee of a British religious movement that emphasizes Brutal Honesty, which in Susan's case involves meddling in the lives of others. So that's why Susan tells Leonora (Rita Hayworth in one of her first big film roles) that she should stop being a Trophy Wife and go back to the stage, and why she tells lovers Mike and Irene that they're ill-suited for each other.Susan's enthusiasm for God and truth-telling hasn't inspired her to pay any more attention to her husband Barrie (Fredric March) or their teenaged daughter Blossom. In fact, she's demanding a divorce from Barrie, who's been driven to alcoholism by his wife's neglect. Barrie, citing Susan's own lofty rhetoric about fresh starts and redemption, says that if he can stop drinking, she should give their marriage a second chance.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Nigel Bruce plays "Hutchie", one of his usual amiable British nincompoops. | |

Bindle Stick: One of the signs of Susan's pretentiousness is that she carries around what is, quite literally, a designer bindle stick. | |
