This is quite a pleasing little story as "Willie" (Ronald Colman) - the playboy son of "Lord Leland" (Frederick Kerr) returns, penniless, from his latest dud adventure in Africa. Soon his smooth talking manages to reconcile him with his initially irritated father, whilst he also pries the attentions of linoleum heiress "Dorothy" (Loretta Young) away from the equally penniless "Grand Duke Paul" (Paul Cavanagh) and soon we've got a fun little love triangle developing. Colman is on good form and the script allows this to bob along merrily as his charm and charisma win the day. Myrna Loy and David Hope add a little sparkle to it, too, and it makes for quite an engaging afternoon feature.
