The Devil To Pay! - 1930 - 6/10

Willie sells off all his possessions and departs India. Another failure, his tenth.
Back home, his father is fed up! Fed up, I say!
Nonetheless, Willie is contrite and, even as a wastrel, utterly charming.
Especially so when he catches the eye of an heiress, soon to be engaged to a duke.
Cheery Rom-Com has risqué (for 1930) situations and saucy one-liners for the alert.
Ronald Colman’s grace carries the film, with Loretta feisty as the spunky ingenue.
