Wonderful Charles Coburn stars as a nosy parker who injects himself into the lives of a sales girl (Anne Shirley) and her brash suitor (James Craig). Nothing much happens, but it's a pleasant little film. Coburn is always watchable and had a long career as an A-list character actor in Hollywood. Anne Shirley is OK, and handsome James Craig always seems to be doing Clark Gable impressions. Ernest Truex is funny as the butler. No one else makes much of an impression. Hans Conried, Nora Cecil, Jimmy Conlin, Jed Prouty, Russell Gleason, Renee Godrey, Tom Dugan, Mary Gordon, and Astrid Allwyn co-star. Silent stars Max Linder, Matt Moore, and Jack Mulhall all have bit parts.
