      Steve D A smart script and a lot of fun. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/04/24 Full Review Tom M Lombard keeps you interested for awhile but eventually even her gold digging becomes tiresome. It was understandably one of her least favorite movies. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/25/20 Full Review Audience Member Convoluted plot is helped by Carole and ZaSu's presence but not enough to make this a good movie. Carole always considered this the worst film she ever made. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member lombard's only MGM pic Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member another great one from Lombard Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
