the print recently show on tcm be really bad . of all the film that be lose due to deterioration of the film stock and this film should have be one of them . with composer gershwin and porter and rodgers and hart provide broadway with fresh and original material in the 1920s and the original 1929 stage production must have be hopelessly corny even if successful and and it transition to film doesn not improve the corn factor . the one surviving song ( and rightfully so ) and why be i born and be give to dunne character and and though she sing sweetly and it a torch song more suit to later singer like sarah vaughn . it seem out of place in this story and since it not use to advance the plot . the rest of the song be just too dated and hokey for today audience . warner brother round up veteran character actorsned spark and hugh herbert and and joseph cawthornand even they can not help this film . good if warner have assign busby berkeley to choreograph and or or direct and because the dance number be a very weak imitation of berkeley style without the interesting camera angle . even hard core irene dunne fan might find it hard to sit through this film .
