Penthouse (1933 W.S. Van Dyke)

Zippy concoction is sprinkled with good bits of everything, like sea salt, nuts and chocolate, competently written by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett of The Thin Man fame, from a story by Arthur Somers Roche. Warner Baxter is defender of such low types as (basically nice) gangster Nat Pendleton, after half an hour gets involved with witness Myrna Loy in refreshingly direct pre-code style (she is surprised he doesn't sleep with her). Good comedy moments from Charles Butterworth. With Mae Clarke, Phillips Holmes.

Shot by Harold Rosson and Lucien Andriot for MGM.

Horrible dresses you got at MGM in 1933

This one isn't much better
