...drinking Lawyer Malone (Brian Donlevy) wriggles into trouble and out again with monotonous regularity. For a while, he divides his time between a nightclub crooner (Dorothy Lamour) and a rich, fusty old client (Marjorie Rambeau). Then the crooner is convicted of murdering her boss.

Tugboat Annie Sails Again (Warner) revives the hardheaded, soft-hearted old salt who, in her Satevepost exploits, bulldozes the boys around Tacoma's water front. Seasoned, frog-voiced Marjorie Rambeau puts on Marie Dressler's costume; villainized, kinky-haired Alan Hale plays the Wallace Beery part of Bullwinkle, Annie's rival.
