There aren’t enough adjectives to fully commend Barrymore and Lombard for their peerless work, here.

John Barrymore fits [his role] as wholly and smoothly as a banana in a skin; and appropriate metaphors should be devised for Walter Connolly, Carole Lombard and Roscoe Karns.

Often credited as the first screwball comedy… an acerbic satire of show-business ego and superficiality.

With all the slimy tricks, delusions of grandeur, and high-pitched shouting matches, it's difficult to appreciate even the moments that demonstrate creative commentary on love and art.
