Editorial Reviews

Too much plot tends to get in the way of the usual verbal sparring between the Charleses, Nick (William Powell) and Nora (Myrna Loy) , in this the third entry in M-G-M's series of sophisticated whodunits. Not that Nick and his charming wife aren't their usual brittle selves but the screenwriters dragged in almost to burdensome a riddle for them to solve. The end result is fairly entertaining, though, especially when Mr. Charles' addlebrained gangland pals insist on given little Nick, Jr. (William A. Paulsen) a birthday party complete with "rented" baby guests.
