It's not the kind of film that's ever going to make anyone's Ten Best list, but it's so enjoyable that it ought to be better known. Go to Full Review

Daniel K Sep 1 Very entertaining. Powell debonair, as always. Margaret Lindsay is delightful but not commanding. See more Alain E @AlainE Jul 23 I found this unwatchable. It’s not funny and definitely not noir. See more acsdoug D @acsdoug 05/24/2023 Although the dialogue feels a bit dated here and there, you would think you can't go wrong with a Michael Curtiz/William Powell detective neo noir. You would be right. See more 03/22/2014 Michael Curtiz directed this early talkie with William Powell as a private eye in Paris who falls for the beautiful woman, Margaret Lindsay, he's investigating. It takes some time to get going, but it's a pretty good yarn once it's kicks into gear, even if Powell and Lindsay don't have that great of on-screen chemistry. Not a classic, but worth watching for Powell fans. See more 03/15/2014 I don't know if this was pre-Thin Man. But William Powell gives a good performance as a down and out Private Eye. An enjoyable little movie. See more 01/05/2012 info should include this is a starring vehicle 4 jane wyman. See more Read all reviews
