Trivia
One of eleven films Bette Davis starred in with George Brent.

Goofs
When Robert closes the French doors of the brightly lit and gated elevator at the 48 Kingston building, you could see the silhouette of the gates being shut and also as the elevator begins its ascent. But as the elevator is shown passing each floor, the gates are no longer seen. Additionally, when the elevator stops, the doors open immediately and Robert quickly exists the elevator without any signs of him pulling the elevator gates open nor are the gates even seen.

Quotes
Ellen Garfield: You make me so mad I could... well, I could spit!

Brent & Davis were Great Together

Greatly enjoyed this Betty Davis film which I had never viewed and found Davis at her very best in appearance and in a very light hearted role she portrayed as Ellen Garfield. I believe Davis was around 27 years of age when she appeared in this film and she was very charming and had a good supporting actor, George Brent, (Curt Devlin) who was a star reporter for his newspaper and was in competition with Ellen Garfield to get the big scoop or headline stopper for their respective newspapers. This couple were also love birds who had intentions to get married only under certain terms they agreed upon together, a sort of contest that would lead to some very important big steps in their lives. Veteran actor Roscoe Karns, (Toots O'Grady) was the photographer for Curt Devlin and gave a great supporting comical role through out the entire picture. This is a very enjoyable 1935 Classic film and I believe that Davis and Brent both gave outstanding performances. Enjoy.
