Quite a few reviewers used the word "cute" and that's the first word that came to my mind, too. The Turner folks on TV only gave it 1 1/2 stars and I think that's unfair. It definitely deserves more than that. There are some snappy songs from Penny Singleton of Blondie fame, there is some acting from Humphrey Bogart in a very unusual role (and that's the humor, seeing him out of character and saying silly stuff when thrown on the ground by a female Blacksmith). and the rest of the cast hold their own. No, it's not the funniest movie you'll ever see. But this isn't brain surgery we're talking about here (though some of the characters seem to have had brain surgery or to be in need of it!)
The leads manage to actually make you interested in what happens to them, even though you know it will all come out right in the end. You're still rooting for the good guys and for love to conquer all, perhaps in a half-nelson.
A fast, funny film with some snappy though dated tunes and even some "rug cutting" here and there. It's not an Oscar contender, but for what it is, it's funny and, well...cute.
