Irresistible fun from fabulous Mae!, 24 October 2006
8/10
Author: Greensleeves from United Kingdom

This is such an enjoyable film! The carnival scenes at the beginning are staged with a great sense of realism. Mae plays the part of 'Tira' with great gusto from the moment the film opens. She is a sensation as a carnival dancer and when she first sashays into view you know the crowd have never seen anything like her. Soon she's a lady lion tamer and meeting society swells thus enabling her to move up in the world, though in those rather un-PC times that means having three black maids instead of only one! She's looking slim and glamorous and wears some sensational gowns, especially her 'bridal' gown and her 'cobweb' gown. There are also some horrors: the 'polka dot' outfit and a gown with a vertical stripe and a tiny fur collar which when turned up makes her look like a pinhead. There are dozens of memorable lines in this film and those film critics that swear she never actually said "Come up and see me sometime" should watch the after trial telephone scene with Juror 'Number four' because there it is, ringing out loud and clear. This is a gem of a movie and, together with 'She Done Him Wrong' and 'Belle Of The Nineties', represent Mae's finest hour.
