My Take:
The Gold Dust twins con men out of their money in Havana.
After the success of The Gold Diggers on Broadway, Warner Brothers decided to assemble some of the same cast and crew for this female led comedy. The film was originally shot with musical numbers throughout, but there was a decline in musicals in the late twenties, so it was recut and only a few numbers appear.
What I Liked:
Charles Judels as Mons. LeMaire was brilliant… busting up every set he walks into.
What I Didn't Like:
I didn't see the appeal in Winnie Lightner, she did remind me of an unfunny Melissa McCarthy.
What I Learned:
How cool an opening sequence can be if you just let it play out.
