Jonny Davis (Clark Gable) and his kid brother Kirk (Robert Sterling) are ace war correspondents. Both are in love with bright-topped Paula Lane (Lana Turner), also an ace war correspondent. The trio's assignments take them from Manhattan to French Indo-China and Manila. But most of the time they are busier with their luckless love affair. Their story is mainly a set of cues for the sort of hard-boiled mating-dance at which Mr. Gable is an amiable virtuoso. In Manhattan Jonny makes love to Paula, then jilts her. In Indo-China Paula makes love...
...character actors, Fred Stone, whose acting is a fine example of comic technique. He has all the timing, presence, and quaint mannerisms that are required to bring such a role to life, and his performance is one that should not be missed. He is best supported by his daughter, Paula, and by Nancy Duncan, who play his grand-daughter and daughter respectively. Nancy Duncan again shows her versatility as an actress in the role of the truly bird-brained awkward ballerina. These three carry the performance with the able help of Jacqueline DeSuz in the tiny role of a drunken...
...torpedoed British cruiser Galatea, which he survived by a near-miracle on Dec. 16. > From Free China U.P.'s Karl Eskelund, lean, bumptious Far Eastern veteran, sent out the first report of what happened to U.S. and British newsmen in Shanghai.

...audiences out of their buttoned boots. The play pointed up the fact that a lady can't roll in the hay and then expect to live in the manor. Although Sir Arthur Wing Pinero laced his drama with many a tight homily and saw to it that his Paula's past caught up with her in the end, the uniform reaction of audiences was one of shocked disapproval. Produced during the same year in London and New York, the Second Mrs. Tanqueray inspired much pulpitation, was condemned by critics as unfit for mother, brother, sister or wife...
