David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a perpetually uninvolving misfire that establishes its arms-length atmosphere right from the get-go... Rated: 1.5/4 Dec 1, 2024 Full Review Pare Lorentz Vanity Fair Dressier for a slapstick comedy, [Marion Davies] might find that her real gift for mimicry would be received far more enthusiastically than her propensity for "dressing up" in boys' pants and acting coy Jun 3, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
