I think I'm too jaded for this film,Held is stunning to look at but is her head full of fluff? Oh I am but a stranger in your country can you help a poor damsel out? I love musicals and if it weren't for William Powell it would not hold my interest. As for pre code films the only one I've seen is Night Nurse with Barbara Stanwyck so I have no clue,as for the uplifting movement of the film I think lighting made her seem like an innocent angel and the song made me want to say no I will not play with you.
