Title: Torch Singer
Release Date: 8 September 1933
Director: Alexander Hall & George Somnes
Cast: Claudette Colbert, Ricardo Cortez, David Manners, Lyda Roberti
IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0024685/
My Rating: (4/10) ★★★★✩✩✩✩✩✩
Ultimately forgettable film with a largely implausible storyline and a tidy, blink-and-you'll-miss-it resolution. A few good moments if you like brazen women talking tough. The most delightful moments though come when Claudette Colbert plays two scenes opposite equally precious (but not at all precocious) little film starlets. These little girls (one of which goes entirely uncredited--guess which color!) were destined to be in movies and with very little effort completely steal the picture.
