Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAmong the songs cut from the version which presently survives in in the Warner Bros. library, and which is occasionally shown on Turner Classic Movies, is What Would I Care, sung by Bernice Claire and Jack Whiting at the end of reel five, which is "missing in action".
- GoofsAt the beginning of the film when Elmer is fishing, the bobber on his line is white when seen in the water, but dark when he pulls the line out of the water.
- Alternate versionsThe original 80-minute version, a full musical, was released only outside of the United States. Most of the musical numbers were cut for the domestic version. It is unknown whether a print of this longer version still exists, although the complete soundtrack to the International Sound Version (which includes all of the original songs) survives on Vitaphone discs at the UCLA Film and Television Archives.

Featured review
Throwaway comedy but of some interest to pre-code buffs
This is an overall mediocre comedy, but it does contain some delightfully risquè lines and situations which could only have happened pre-code. Joe E. Brown is an acquired taste; the real find here is Laura Lee, a peppy comedienne who reminded me of Winnie Lightner (but prettier!) and who, surprisingly, made only a handful of films before retiring. She and Brown fit well together. Warning: the TCM print of this movie is missing a few minutes, which are apparently lost. ** out of 4.
