Tracy Is Good Not Playing A Reporter

Lee Tracy used to have his name in lights on Broadway, but the booze got to him. Now he's a comic on the vaudeville circuit, sweet on widowed dancer Helen Mack, and her son, David Holt. But Miss Mack falls for comic dancer Arthur Pierson. They get married, but Holt doesn't get along with Pierson, so they ship him off to military school.

Holt gives a fine performance, and Tracy is very good far form his newspaperman persona. There's also Helen Morgan to make the relationships more complicated. The movie moves along well enough until the very end, which is rather contrived. Alfred Weker directs with his usual undistinguished competence. Lynn Overman and Dean Jagger have small roles.

Pierson was pretty much a utility player for Paramount when he wasn't directing rehearsals for the likes of Lubitsch. He returned to Broadway, then came back behind the camera, ending his career working for Hanna-Barbera. He died in 1973, aged 73.
