      NYT Staff New York Times It is a synthetic Manhattan cocktail without the cherry. Jul 23, 2020 Full Review SMH Staff Sydney Morning Herald [The story] is is tedious, illogical, and a long way from being original. Even the excellent acting of Richard Arlen, Nancy Carroll, Lllyan Tashman, and the rest of the cast falls to overcome its defects. Jul 23, 2020 Full Review Joe Bigelow Variety To many the youth of the ambitious trio will predominate. They look arid act well, particularly Richard Arlen, Paramount's leading juvenile at the present moment. Jul 23, 2020 Full Review Elisabeth Goldbeck Motion Picture Magazine The picture is full of pitfalls, badger games, opening nights, and other terrors of the city. Nancy is awfully cute, and does some audible songs and dances. Dec 9, 2020 Full Review P.S. Harrison Harrison's Reports Money has been expended lavishly on it, but the story lacks appealing qualities. Jul 23, 2020 Full Review Tele Staff Daily Telegraph (Australia) A well-made sound-picture, with enjoyable synchronised music. Jul 23, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
