, cesar romero plays duke, a tough and suave womanizer who owns a dance hall. when he gets a new singer, lily (carole landis), he immediately starts laying on the charm in order to dry to get in her skirt. but she' ll have none of this and she realizes her boss is a womanizer. however, through most of the rest of the film, duke is a perv - - constantly hitting on lily and acting like a boorish pig. by the end of the film, duke' s not only continued to sexually harass lily at every turn but also cheats everyone with a lottery drawing. so what' s lily to do? bail him out and pretend everything is okay! ! this film illustrates many bad lessons for young men and women. first, sexual harassment is just innocent fun. two, that a guy who sexually harasses you and cheats people is excellent boyfriend material! ! so, although the acting is quite good, the story is awful and sets back the human race about 100 years. not one of the finer moments in hollywood history .
this is what carole did for a living in san francisco, before hollywood. she came out every so often and sang a song. in this film she is independent and ...
drab melodrama which promises at the start to be a bubbly musical but turns into a half - hearted noir story. romero, who is usually effortlessly charming, seems a little tired here, and carole landis is only serviceable as girl he loves / hates. william henry is quite wooden as a nice - guy piano player who gets caught up in dance hall manager romero' s romantic and financial entanglements .
dumbo (1941), 63 minutes, d: disney studio a charming, animated disney story, released to theaters around the time of the surprise attack on pearl harbor in hawaii, and the first of the disney animated to be released on videocassette (in 1981). it was a twist on the classic ugly duckling story of a shy little circus elephant dumbo. the baby pachyderm was criticized, ridiculed, and outcast for his ears which were big enough to fly with. he was separated from his mother, mrs. jumbo, when she was branded a mad elephant for defending him. he was befriended by circus mouse timothy mouse who built his confidence. dumbo became the overnight sensation of the circus with his flying act, and he was reunited with his mother .

snappy number, probable a little too cool for itself, but who can resist the latin charms of cesar romero and the dame that tames him, aka carole landis! not the most extravagant club flick, but i found it entertaining with enough going on for both laughs and trouble .
