It is a watchable first-generation film musical. There are some obvious flaws caused by a mostly immobile camera and choreography better suited for the Broadway stage than the Hollywood sound stage, but there are some great strengths to it. Among them are its cast, including Arthur Lake, Sally Blane (Loretta Young's sister) and Lloyd Hamilton, a good if unmemorable set of songs and the opening-out of the action to a beach location -- if you can accept cliffs in seaside Florida, of course.
Leo Tover, whose black-and-white cinematography would be Oscar-nominated in the 1950s, is obviously operating under a considerable handicap. Except for the dance numbers, and a couple of MOS sequence, almost everything is done in medium shots, usually extended two-shots. Still, director Marshall Neilan manages to keep things humming, there are a couple of funny scenes (including a six-handed bridge game) and we get to see a lot of tanned legs.
