Predictable But Fun
14 June 2005
Wisecracking William Gargan wangles an invite to a pretty girl's home for dinner. He hits on the brilliant scheme of making her brother a culinary star.

(Such stardom was probably a far less common event in the 1930s than it is now. In Europe, not to mention in the little old USA.) We can pretty much guess what problems will ensure. The brother, played very amusingly by Erik Rhodes, maybe is not such a great cook ....

Still, it has a great supporting cast. The script is definitely not polished as it would be for a major movie. But it's clever and holds our attention.

Things end happily but, for some of the characters, disappointingly.
