Sub-par musical stars Raymond as the never-say-die show producer whose string of bad luck ends in bankruptcy and a short hitch in the hoosegow. Sothern, who plays Raymond's singing girlfriend, convinces her starstruck father to marry an ugly old-but-wealthy woman and bail out the show (and
Raymond) in time to turn it into a smash. Lame premise and lackluster musical numbers are almost rescued by Bill "Bojangles" Robinson and "Fats" Waller. Songs: "Hooray for Love," "I'm in Love All Over Again," "I'm Living in a Great Big Way," "You're an Angel," "Palsie Walsie," and "Got a Snap in
My Fingers" (Dorothy Fields, Jimmy McHugh).
