This MGM short offers the audience a bit of cheesecake with pictures of well-developed men on Santa Monica Beach and in the wrestling ring in the early 1930s.
It has some technical interest with its use of high-speed photography as a couple of men grapple in the ring, but unless one of those two subjects is your dish there isn't much more to it. It's basically a silent movie with constant narration by Paul Girard Smith. Smith was a writer, credited with three of Ziegfeld's annual Follies, the Broadway version of FUNNY FACE and several screenplays, including Buster Keaton's THE GENERAL. His high-speed narration was the sort one might have heard on a radio version of a wrestling match, but it lacks the snarky fun of Pete Smith.
