...featured player of the season's first hit, while her ears still rang with the jazz jingles she crooned only two years ago in the smoky staleness of a night club. Barbara Stanwyck came that suddenly to the apogee of Broadway nights. At first she sang in a cabaret and imitated stage celebrities. Then she had an understudy part in Lily Sue (because Willard Mack* happened to notice her tall, auburn beauty), later a role in The Noose-now her name in white lights. Arthur Hopkins has cast her opposite Hal Skelly, as a slangy lady of the burlesque...

...Satin Woman (Mrs. Wallace Reed). The heroine is a Mother. In order to save her daughter from a cabaret sheik, she vamps the man herself.

Thus the dumpling of Virtue is set, though not obtrusively, upon the hotcakes of Hollywood...

Abjuring all her rich admirers in the moment of glittering triumph, she returns to her husband, who promises never to do it again. The film was made in Manhattan, enriched with authentic local color from the footlight district, blessed with an intelligent scenario...

Rough House Rosie (Clara Bow) is moderately diverting nonsense about a hoyden from Tenth Avenue who wants to be a lady. She makes a hit in a cabaret, appears in society under the patronage of a handsome gentleman friend, distresses her amiable prizefighting boy friend. But the drinking, lovemaking, gambling of the upper crust disgust her tender soul so much- that she returns just in time to cheer her prizefighter on to championship. A luridly punning sub-titier adds to the fun. Thus the Czechoslovakian princess is said to have "married twice but her Czechs were no good...
