SHE DONE HIM WRONG (1933). Mae West film that saved a bankrupt Paramount studios has Mae as "Lou" who owns a saloon with plenty of songs, Men trouble, sniffing out malfeasance and lots and lots of Double entendres and innuendo.
While I applaud MW for being her own woman and really not giving a damn what other people thought (Very curvaceous in comparison to other actresses of the time and openly showing her enjoyment of Sex/thumbing her nose ...I wonder if Madonna was a fan?), I found this all but impossible to finish. Perhaps it's many impersonations over the years or hearing how good it is, but even as this stage, She was almost a caricature and maybe if almost every line wasn't an attempt to be witty, might have liked this. A very young Cary Grant (even prettier than Mae at this stage) and Mary Gordon (SHERLOCK HOLME'S series) are in it. Worth seeing if interested in it or her, but that's about all I can recommend. *
