Made On Broadway - 1933 - 5/10
Messy PreCode vehicle straddles blasé sophistication and screwball.
Jeff Bidwell is a publicity agent / fixer, and his fees ain’t cheap.
There is an endless stream of clients who flutter to his nightclub / office after they land in another swamp.
He takes an impoverished suicidal type under his wing (why?), determined to remake her.
Story tries to be too many things – daintily – and is neither risqué nor comic.
Warners could have done something lurid or sordid with this, MGM is stodgy.
Babyface came out the same year. See that instead.
