Summary
Considered one of the first screwball comedies, this is "the first comedy in which sexually attractive sophisticated stars indulged in their own slapstick instead of delegating it to their inferiors." John Barrymore stars as a tempermental Broadway impressario who badgers his shy ingenue into stardom and then loses her to Hollywood. (Does not circulate)
