It is stanrdard illusionism & a narrative that lacks true conviction, and what a modern femininist nightmare: three women in the story (without counting the always dependable Jane Darwell in an extra role) and all of them are either ditzy, man-hungry, or subserviant while allowing the men control their lives because of wealth. At the beginning, Lombard is a particular silly woman, but she turns her beliefs around when she first considerates becoming a mother. Thanks Jon for a glimpse of this remarkably rare film from an early age, A must for Lombard fans.
