Marjorie Rambeau Stole The Show


As far as I'm concerned, Marjorie Rambeau stole every scene she was in. Even though Lupe Velez was cute as the trampy latin spitfire, Nina, everyone paid attention to Mama when she came in the room. Another underused, under-appreciated character actor.

Mary Carlisle, as Anne, was totally her mini-me. I'm surprised no one pointed out that Joe Palooka was basically marrying his mother.



No two persons ever watch the same movie.

Everyone played their roles well. Velez and Durante were my favorites.
