Bebe Daniels stars in this 1933 British film, playing Mitzi Hansen, a stage star who hires a male secretary (Victor Varconi) and falls for him. But he won't reciprocate because she's his boss. Slim plot, but films boasts a couple decent songs and of course Bebe Daniels as star.
Along for the ride are a trio of would-be lovers (Claude Hulbert, Frederick Lloyd, and Lester Matthews), a catty co-star (Iris Ashley), and a grandmother (Eva Moore).
There's also an extended marionette show (why, is anyone's guess) with a badly dubbed Varconi supposedly providing the voices.
Daniels is terrific and looks even better. She's beautifully dressed and photographed with lots of backlighting, which provides a glowing sparkle to scenes. Varconi is rather dull. Of the supporting cast, Hulbert and Ashley are fun. And yes that's Stewart Granger, in his first screen appearance, as the waiter.
