The versatile, eternal second banana Jack Carson finally gets to be lead in Good Humor Man. Biff wants to get hitched to Margie (Lola Albright) but gets caught up in some zany adventure with Bonnie (Jean Wallace). This one is kind of silly, and probably aimed at a younger audience. Biff just gets deeper and deeper in a case of mistaken identity. Good thing he has Johnny (Peter Miles) helping to clear his name. A whole lot of silly slapstick humor. moves pretty slowly. more slapstick humor. and then some slapstick humor. Directed by LLoyd Bacon. had worked with Bogart and Bette Davis. It's okay. was hoping for a more serious bit from Jack Carson, but not in this one. he was so great in Mildred Pierce. and so many others.
