This is so all over the place tonally-- the banter about the death penalty, the banter about working women, the romantic rival who has a freaking skull next to his reading lamp, etc.-- I was tempted to just keep watching to see where it'd go next. But not tempted enough. Charles Lamont directed, a dozen years after his film career started and a dozen years before the Ma & Pa Kettle series. (This is about three years after the also strange War Babies with Shirley Temple, but much less cringey.)
