Featured review
Another amusing entry with Harold Peary as Gildersleeve...
HAROLD PEARY as Gildersleeve gets mixed up with fluttery society dame BILLIE BURKE and her crazy brother, HOBART CAVANAUGH, who has a William Tell fixation and likes to shoot arrows into apples atop heads. CLAIRE CLARLETON is the blonde gold-digger with an eye on a mink coat and ANN DORAN is Peary's jealous girlfriend from Summerville who tracks him to the big city to snoop on his activities.
It's harmless fun, with Peary again showing a mastery of physical comedy and timing and all the others keeping up with him. FREDDIE MERCER is again on hand as little Leroy and RICHARD LeGRAND adds a lot of wry humor as the man who always gets a chance to say, "Well, I wouldn't say that." LEONID KINSKEY has a funny bit as an eavesdropping window-washer.
It's another bad day for Gildersleeve and the funny script keeps things breezing along until the end with a final twist.
