    • Trivia
      Filmed on the Paramount lot two years before "Sunset Boulevard," fans of the latter will recognize the same winding staircase that Gloria Swanson comes down for her C.B. DeMille closeup. Charles Brackett, producer/screenwriter of this film also co-wrote "Sunset."

      Clifford Tatlock: I'm interested in the common man. Schuyler doesn't qualify.

    8/10
    Overlooked screwball comedy
    **MILD SPOILERS** I personally know of no one, other than myself, who has heard of this movie, let alone watched it. Miss Tatlock's millions in no way deserves to be relegated to obscurity. It's genuinely funny, sidesplittingly so at several junctures. John Lund (who plays an obscure actor) is hired to play the part of a long "lost" relative who has just inherited the "millions" in the title. Actually, this relative happens to be more than a little daft--a pyromaniac (a comic pyromaniac, of course, who goes about singing, "I Just Want To Set the World On Fire") who has spent 20 years or so in an insane asylum. The mayhem that follows is quite fun--and needless to say, there is the usual love interest, the confession that he is not what he seems, the rejection, the reconciliation, and (no surprise) the sudden appearance of the real heir. Obviously, it isn't the plot elements that make this worth watching--it's the hilarity gleaned from the trip. It certainly isn't a masterpiece, but it IS worth retrieving from the abyss of forgotten movies. 8/10
