User Reviews

The pretty Andrea Leeds, fresh from her Oscar-nominated role in 1937 All-Star hit "Stage Door", hits a low in this romantic comedy with the handsome Joel McCrea. The film casts them as extreme opposites of different personalities and temperaments, with McCrea a rough sailor from the Midwest and leads a New York City working girl. The plot follows their sudden romance and how he tries to change to fit in her world but pretty much cannot. What this film contains and talented and charming leading stars it lacks in an entertaining story. There are some nice supporting performances from Frank Jenks, Dorothea Kent, Isabel Jeans and Grant Mitchell, but they cannot rise above the fact that the film has really little plot and drags during it's rather short running time. Another issue is the fact that Prince of this film seem to be faded and have sound that is often difficult to understand. I don't think this is something that will ever be fully restored so for those who try to get through it, it might be difficult.
