The beautiful Lucille Ball and she was back in her salad days gets jilted by Patric
Knowles in Beauty For The Asking. Our heroine is down but not out. She manages to market the tricks of the beautician trade into a cosmetic empire and
she can buy and sell Knowles and Frieda Inescourt the rich woman Knowles did
marry.
Lucy does well in this role which has some comic and dramatic elements. But Knowles really comes out best in this story. Knowles was never a lead, he's probably best known as Will Scarlett in the Errol Flynn Robin Hood film. But he could occasionally be a villain and he does excel here.
Donald Woods is here, always reliable as the second lead. But he's always kind of bland and he really isn't given much to work with.
Lucille Ball fans should like this.
