An absolute waste of money
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
View MoreThis is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
View MoreIt's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
View MoreThis is the type of film where you pretty much just watch the actors and forget about the plot. It's an absolutely ridiculous screwball comedy about two young singers stowing away from Honolulu to San Francisco, posing as chambermaids and become involved in an apparent jewel robbery and blackmail scheme. June Lang and Lynn Bari are the two lovely young ladies who somehow end up involved in the issues of seasick millionaire Gene Lockhart and his former chambermaid wife Ruth Donnelly, obviously carrying on with both gigolo Erik Rhodes and swimming instructor Robert Allen. The mix-up of the real gems with fakes and the presence of drunk Jack Norton, strongman Constantine Romanoff and funny sidekick Glenn Vernon adds to the confusion. It's a minor entry among the many screwball comedies of the 1930's and 40's where the script literally went out the portal window and only the cast was able to get the remainder of the film safely to dry land.
