- GoofsAfter Ashcraft tells Marie to get out of his room, she heads toward Rosie's room. Marie does a frantic knock on the door then tries the door handle but the door is locked. Since she wasn't aware that Dr. Sascha had locked Rosie's room; Marie should have first tried the door handle and upon discovering that it was locked then start banging on the door frantically. Glenda Farrell as the actor knowing that the door was locked caused the character to react prematurely thus leading to an error.

Featured review
Always Willing To Look At Joan Blondell
The IMDB synopsis describes this movie as "two wisecracking manicurists flee an irate gangster". That's a better precis than I could manage. William Keighley doesn't seem able to do much with a complicated script; only Hugh Herbert (as a millionaire on his way to confront his wayward wife) and Glenda Farrell as the inciting manicurist are very good. Robert Armstrong is ok as the irate gangster, but Joan Blondell is unaccountably rote, trying to make sense of her lines in what should be a high-speed farce.
That's rather a disappointment to me. In just shy of 50 years of film performances, it's rare to see Miss Blondell not be great.
