- AnecdotesOverton is supposed to be flat broke and homeless, but he's wearing an immaculate three-piece suit and tie and is freshly shaved. (Loy is also well-dressed in a fur-trimmed suit, but she's only pretending.) As was so often the case at MGM, Louis B. Mayer loathed the depiction of poverty.
- GaffesThe neon sign over the gaming establishment is Play Palace, but the sign painted on the glass over the front door is Play Place, both identifications appearing in the same shot, at the same time, as the couple drives out with their new car. This identical shot, but shortened to end before the car appears, is used again in Third Finger, Left Hand (1940), also starring Myrna Loy who apparently visits the Play Palace again, this time with Melvyn Douglas.

Commentaire à la une
Lucky Night gets off to a roaring start, with Loy and Taylor tearing up the town and obviously having a ball together. There's great chemistry and the situations they get themselves into are a lot of fun to watch. For awhile I was really thinking this movie was going to turn out to be an underrated and little-known gem.
Unfortunately, when the pair sober up the next morning, the story goes off the rails and becomes a dreary, incoherent mess. Taylor's character keeps rambling about how he has some "idea" about what life should be, but he can't articulate what he means. The dialogue actually becomes so bizarre at times that I wondered if the writer was all there.
This one is worth checking out if you're a fan of Loy -- she's always a pleasure to watch -- but if you start to get antsy halfway through, change the channel. You won't be missing anything.
