Storyline

Casino operator Johnny Lamb hires down-on-her-luck socialite Lucille Sutton as his casino hostess, in order to help her and to improve casino income. But Lamb's pals fear he may follow Lucille onto the straight-and-narrow path, which would not be good for business. So they hire Gert Malloy and Dictionary McKinney, a pair of con-artists, to manipulate Johnny back off the path of righteousness. Written by Jim Beaver <jumblejim@prodigy.net>

Trivia

According to the press book, when director Alexander Hall went to the exclusive Coronado Island Hotel beach to film location scenes, Groucho Marx, Charles Ruggles and sugar heiress [error] were there already, and they became extras in the background of the scene. However, no footage of them remains in the film. See more »
