🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its satire on the clash between professional ambition and romantic pursuit, exploring gender dynamics through the lens of a courtroom rivalry turned love triangle. It relies on witty repartee and situational comedy to expose the societal absurdities of its era.
What lingers after the final reel is the sharp, playful critique of the rules governing career and courtship, delivered with a silent-era lightness of touch. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Robert Z. Leonard
