Steve D Not enough to it to work. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/02/24 Full Review Audience Member Mervyn LeRoy directed this breezy early talkie about promoter/con man William Powell trying to sell his scheme to make rubber out of sewage. It's all pretty silly, but quite enjoyable. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I've been filling in my William Powell gaps by catching stuff like this off TCM, and this was a pretty watchable little outing with Powell as a fast talking huckster, but overall I never really connected with it beyond my enjoyment of his patter. Rental? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member not bad B movie fare Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
