The whole plot involving the rich cad (Franchot Tone) and poor little Suzy (Jean Harlow) is a tiny bit contrived and it is a bit unbelievable that she fell so hard for him when his friend (Cary Grant) is so much nicer and better looking. However, if you ignore this you have an excellent little picture with good acting and direction. The plot is involving throughout and is one of Jean Harlow's better films. For Grant and Tone, however, their acting leaves a bit to be desired, as they are cast as Frenchmen and hardly do anything with their voices to make us believe it. This reminds me of Grant's amusing movie I Was A Male War Bride where he had absolutely no French accent whatsoever!
