Great cast....good story...but surprisingly lifeless
27 March 2005
This is a weird movie...it has all of the good stuff to make a 1930's great' great cast (Ginger Rogers, Walter Connelly, Veree Teasdale, Tim Holt), good story and really good sets. It's even directed by Gregory La Cava.

But, somehow, everyone in this movie is lifeless....no spark. Especially Ginger Rogers' performance...it's like she's taking sleeping pills.

It's really a B movie pretending to be an A movie.

This movie has none of the spark that "Stage Door" has. What a pity, since it's one of Connelly's last films before his untimely death in 1940.
