Fun For The Cast

Old New England skipper Charles Coburn makes some bad business decisions. He and wife Beulah Bondi are evicted from their house.

Even with a low-rent programmer like this one, directed by Robert Sinclair, the MGM gloss is apparent, not only in the star casting -- Billie Burke, Helen Broderick, and Helen Westley -- but in art direction and so forth. Not that this is prime Charles Coburn, but there's a lot of Code-compliant fun in this one. It's worth looking at and a bit more for the cast.
