Quotes:
Binji Baker:
No use you you hanging around here. Just buy a copy of the Tribune, read it over, then make a rewrite... you can use it for your last edition.
Stew Smith: It'll never make the last edition. It'll take me four hours to translate your story into English.
Binji Baker: Oh, is that so?
Stew Smith: I'm afraid. Take your hat off, might make an impression.
[Baker takes off hat]
Stew Smith: Impossible. Put it on again.

There is a scene with Robert Williams and Jean Harlow singing a ditty to each other. There was such natural wit and affection that their infatuation and joy in each others company was perfectly expressed. This was love, this was sensuality, without a hint of the physicality that modern movies are forced to graphicly depict. Seeing a movie like this, made in low fidelity black and white seventy years ago shows what we have lost.
