Brief review, 5 November 1998
Author: Glenn Andreiev (gandreiev@aol.com) from Huntington, NY

At best this is a tolerable antique. Socialites are stranded on a deserted isle after their yacht sinks. Star Bing Crosby (who plays a sailor) sings a lot. Comics George Burns, Gracie Allen, Ethel Merman and Leon Errol get to do some slightly funny stuff. The high point of the film is a great pre-code bit where sexy Carole Lombard changes behind a big rock. The low point involves a chained bear made to do some stunts that well fall under animal cruelty. Sometimes it's a guy in costume, othertimes, it's easily a helpless animal.
