Our Betters (1933)
10/10
Hilarious, mordant send-up of expatriate social climbers
28 March 1999
Must confess I scored it a Ten to raise the average. By all rights this one should rate an average of 8-9.

The bad prints and dated stage business cannot diminish the ethereal beauty of Constance Bennett and Anita Louise, the biting satire of Somerset Maugham, and an over-the-top pas de deux finalé between a lecherous duchess and a "dancing queen" that embellishes one of the most comically smashing dénouements in film history.
