...Night in the Tropics (Universal) has such happy effects on Jim, Cynthia, Steve and Mickey (respectively Allan Jones, Nancy Kelly, Robert Cummings, Peggy Moran), four irrepressible romantics, that they are finally able to untangle an extremely involved knot of amorous entanglements. But before the salubrious Caribbean evening soothes their flaring tempers, Jim, Cynthia, Steve and Mickey scramble through countless Manhattan days & nights uttering ill-tempered wisecracks like: "Kick him good...
Actually, One Night in the Tropic?, was designed as a major film operetta. Jerome Kern, aided by Lyricists Dorothy Fields and Oscar Hammerstein II, wrote five not-so-melodious tunes for Allan Jones's piercing tenor. Short, jaunty, oldtime Musical Director A. Edward Sutherland conducted the actors through the story by the late Earl Derr Biggers. Top-flight Cinematographer Joseph Valentine ran the camera.

...columnist act was born last year in the mind of Hollywood Agent Leo Morrison, who proposed it to Lolly, the logical choice. After her husband, Dr. Harry ("my favorite doctor") Martin, approved, Morrison hired Cinemauthor Edgar Allan Woolf to cook up a skit. First problem was to get actors, but that was no trouble for Columnist Lolly, whose more than 400 daily outlets and strong Hearst connections are a potent argument in any studio discussion. Before long she had lined up Starlets Jane Wyman, Arleen Whelan, Susan Hayward, June Preisser, Warners' bit player Ronald Reagan for male contrast...
