When June Clyde gets a Hollywood contract, her family high-hats George Sidney and his family. However, this comedy, released in 1932, is set in the fabulous long-dead days of 1927, and fortunes can turn in two scenes and a plot twist.
With the success of Abie's Irish Rose a decade earlier, a bout of battling Irishmen and Jews was the key to success for a lot of producers; as late as the 1960s, TV saw BRIDGET LOVES BERNIE. No one was more practiced at playing comic Irishmen for the movies than Charles Murray -- he had been doing it for Sennett in their Keystone days -- George Sidney's stock Jew had no trouble keeping up for half a dozen movies. Although the series had grown tired by this point, there's an excursion to the Cocoanut Grove to show off some Universal contract stars, Luis Alberni as a mad Russian director and Robert Greig as everyone's butler when the pace slackens.
