    • Quotes

      Bob Graham: Julie, I'm going to paint my heart out for you. But if I turn out not to be a combination of Cezanne and Renoir, why, you'll know it's just because I haven't got what it takes, that's all.

      Bob Graham: [sharp knock on the door is heard] Who is it?

      Mrs. Crump: [off-screen] It's Mrs. Crump!

      Julie Stoddard: Well, go away!

      Bob Graham: Shh. It's the landlady. She has dark powers. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if what she was in league with the devil.

    6/10
    Probably a casualty of the production code...
    ...because some of the possible bawdier aspects of this situation could not be explored due to that production code. Nevertheless, the cast is really good in this one and marks Monty Woolley's first film appearance at age 49 as an art critic. Let me tell you, Wooley's screen persona in his later films would never have taken lying down the shabby treatment he got when being mistaken for a reporter like he pretty much did here.

    Robert Montgomery plays a starving artist who impulsively marries heiress Rosalind Russell. He doesn't care if his art sells, but with her encouragement he becomes quite successful, and the success goes to his head. Now she must bring him back down to earth. Enjoyable comedy, good MGM production. The stars are always enjoyable to watch.

    Perhaps the most disappointing aspect of it is that the comic possibilities inherent in a rich, society girl adapting to the bohemian life are left completely unexplored. Also, Robert Montgomery has the personality and manner of a banker in this one, not an artist. Roz Russell's good, as usual, and Robert Benchley, playing a mooch, is amusing. Mickey Rooney is in this for just one minute, but it's really funny, because as soon as you hear that Tarzan-yell, you know who it's gotta be! That voice is unmistakable!
