There are many oddball touches in this occasionally creaky but always entertaining romp.

IMurder at the VanitiesI has all with the sex and smart-alecky attitude and snappy pace of the best pre-code studio pictures.

The Earl Carroll show transplanted to the screen, with more beautiful girls than you can shake a stick at.

One of the unsung gems of pre-Code film.
