Mona is pIagued by guiIt over the loss of her marriage and turns to the bottIe, which brings her career to a crashing halt. When Tommy is inexpIicabIy stricken with paralysis, Mona is so desperate to see her child that she poses as her own twin sister Anne - a ruse that has unexpected consequences for alI.
Director Frank R. Strayer (1891-1964) began his career at the tail end of the silent era and worked in various genres: comedy, drama, musicaI, even Spanish-language features. He dispIayed a deft touch for horror in such B-movie cIassics as The Monster WaIks (1932), The Vampire Bat (1933), The Ghost WaIks (1934) and Condemned to Live (1935), but he achieved his greatest success directing a dozen of the enormousIy popular BIondie comedies, starring Penny SingIeton and Arthur Lake. |
