There, somebody had to say it. This movie is about what women want.
Most of my fellow reviewers on here, especially a few who make copious amounts of IMDb posts, are sounding more "wooden" than usual with regards to this movie.
This film has been described as a lot of things, but I have yet to see someone say it is all about What Women Want (no relation to the Mel Gibson movie). Digging far deeper than its comedy vehicle suggests, it no doubt explores the inner fantasies of many women in 1933, which still hold true for many today. Some just won't admit it as doing so would contradict their social/political views.
Those who have certain cultural expectations either relating to yesteryear's order of films, or to present day, will most likely be sorely disappointed in this movie. It will hit them on the head like a ton of bricks. This movie is truly one of a kind. Not to be missed!!
I gave it a 7/10, which seems like a high score, but actually falls in the middle of my bell curve for about 2000 different older movies which I have collected thus far. I rarely ever score 10/10, and many classic-era B movies get a 5/10 to 7/10 from me.
