Wrong is right
By RJNeb2 (923 reviews) from London , 16 Jan 2006[Highly rated reviewer]
Mercifully short showcase for the stagey charms of the ample West, here in a non-plot about a racy vaudeville singer in the Naughty 90s who has men falling over her. One of them is missionary Grant, obviously earning his chops in one of his early films. Might have gone down as being very saucy with 30s audiences but decidedly creaky now.- Was this review helpful to you?

(3)So Now I Know
By russio (158 reviews) from Harlow , 05 Jul 2009I know that Bette Midler wanted to be Mae west but that Madeleine Khan was funnier than either. An empty showcase for her questioannable talents. May break the odd grimace but otherwise very dull. At 62 minutes I would say that was merciful.- Was this review helpful to you?

30'S Kitsch
By a customer from Manchester , 05 Jan 2009I have always believed that the 1940's was the heyday of the classical Hollywood film. How
mistaken I have been! By 1941 the studio system was already on the way out. For the real all encompassing studio machine you have to turn to the thirties and films like She Done Him Wrong.
This film exemplarfies the good and the bad of the classical Holloywood film - the lavishness of its sets and cast and the rather questionable plot. The plot has more holes then a sieve but the beauty of this film is it's racy dialogue and the aura exuded by Miss West.
It is a film that has to be seen and enjoyed by anyone interested in the Hollywood film and depression era America.- Was this review helpful to you?
