I popped this in for my 88 year old Mom to watch to stop her from dawdling. It is hard to find anything that will grab her interest. Momma was rapt and I was quite surprised.
The story is also well written for the times. The dialog is not so stock as is wont for films of the time.
Claudette Colbert absolutely shines in this pre-code picture. Her nude swimming and bondage scenes are spectacular for 1933. She also is a believable 1930's female.
The rest of the cast is not bad. Ernest Torrance is a commendable lovable scoundrel.
If you can appreciate an early cinema 1930's film you will enjoy this movie! I know I enjoyed it!
