Description by OLDIES.com:
Lovely Mary Brian, known as "the sweetest girl in pictures," is remembered for her roles in The Virginian (1929), The Front Page (1931), Charlie Chan In Paris (1935) and The Amazing Adventure (1936). Later she played the mother of a feisty teenage daughter on the classic 50s TV show Meet Corliss Archer. Irene Rich, often paired with Will Rogers in silent and sound movies, also starred on her own hit radio show, "Dear John," which premiered in 1933 and ran for more than a decade. Director Frank Strayer is known for many independent features including The Vampire Bat, Condemned To Live and The Ghost Walks, as well as at least twelve entries in the long-running "Blondie" series.

Movie Lovers' Ratings & Reviews:
Based on 270 ratings.
Mary Brian and James Hall played an engaged
couple, both employed at the prestigious
"Manhattan Tower". Mary has to battle with
her lecherous boss who doesn't let a little
thing like being married stand in his way of
having a good time - something that zippy
Noel Francis provides with gusto. Fortunately
the wife has found lasting romance with a
man who treats her right but do you think
husband will give her a divorce - no way!!
In between that he is also trying to get his
gullible employers to come into a phoney
stock exchange scheme - he wants their
money to cover his own losses!!! Jed Prouty
gives a terrific performance as a put upon
accountant who reaches the end of his tether
when there is a run on the bank.
Last film appearance of James Hall who only
a couple of years before had reached the
zenith of his career as the star of "Hell's Angels"
but through alcohol had now become flabby
and was looking old before his time.
