The dialogue in this creaker is ridiculous. I watched it because I love Robert Montgomery but even he is terrible in this. Norma is beyond the pale - her giggling is so irritating. But amazingly for once she isn't the worst thing in this movie - the parents were so wooden it was as though they were waiting for their lines to be prompted to them - maybe they just couldn't believe they had such trashy lines. I love the early talkies but this was a bridge too far.
