6/10
some good some fixes
1 June 2022
Crown Prince Florizel (Robert Montgomery) and Princess Brenda of Irania are both leery of their arranged marriage. They haven't seen each other since childhood. The political situation back home is tense. Florizel is sent to Victorian London accompanied by Colonel Geraldine. He encounters Miss Vandeleur (Rosalind Russell) and is taken by her. He learns of a mysterious private group with a dark common purpose called the Suicide Club.

I like the reveal but I don't really like the various fights and escapes afterwards. It needs some better writing. It's a little unreasonable at times. I wouldn't mind a bit of a rewriting and rework the staging. I do like these characters. I would like Montgomery and Russell to have more time together. This has some fun, some good mystery, and some good connection. It just needs a bit of fixing.
