I saw this at the theater but walked in about 5 minutes late because the popcorn line was running slow. I am wondering if I missed certain queues at the beginning that this is basically a comedy? Until I sort of figured this out I felt that the film was tonally off.
Once I realized that it was supposed to be more funny than serious I began enjoying it a good deal more. The idea of having two romantic leads handcuffed together seems kind of lazy by modern standards, but this was 1935 and I wonder if it was one of the first to do this bit?
