Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe part of Mama Jean Bello initially had been accepted by Judy Garland, who then had second thoughts about the slapdash quality of the project and withdrew before filming started. Next, Eleanor Parker, went quickly in and out prior to shooting. Ultimately, the mother role would be played by Ginger Rogers, making her last feature-film appearance.
- GoofsWhen Harlow falls ill in middle of shooting scene on a movie set there are (probably for budgetary reasons) less than a handful of studio employees in attendance; in reality, a set of a major picture is teeming with dozens of creative and technical staffers.

Featured review
Not up to Par
I watched this film and was astounded that is is really awful. The acting is pathetic at best. Ginger Rogers was at her worst and for the most part, most of them were like they had never acted before...wooden. The dialogue was horrible. The basic appearance of the movie looked like a play that was filmed. I found myself thinking of one of the worst movies ever filmed, Plan 9 From Outer Space and thought this was worse than that and that is saying a lot. It doesn't appear that anyone took any pride in the making of this movie as the writing could have been better done by a second grader. The acting , with some of the top stars of the day, was worse than worse. The actual film itself was lacking in the way it was projected for the rest of us to view. Boring would be putting it nicely for this less than stellar film. Time to relegate it to the burial it deserves only deeper
