See Venice And Not This Movie
4 February 2021
True enough. It's a ramshackle affair, with Olsen & Johnson a couple of Navy Shore Patrolmen in Venice looking for a man with a wooden leg when they aren't making risqué remarks and assaulting women, Charles King and Irene Delroy trying to evade her nonce husband Lowell Sherman, and, of course, Noah Beery as a Montenegrin general.

There are two or three decent songs with lyrics by Al Dublin, but your pleasure will depend far more on whether you enjoy Olsen & Johnson than the script, which is based on a show written by Elmer Rice, improbable as that sounds. I suspect he was paying off an election bet.
