Maybe the worst thing is that nobody, including the reviewer, seems to notice that Leslie Howard’s character is a self-absorbed loser.

Probably because the media back then went out of their way to hide his homosexuality and the fact that he was basically a self-absorbed loser in real life.

He gave up his Hollywood and stage career to return to England at the start of WW2 to work on the war effort, and was killed by the Germans because of that.
