Best film of Mae West’s image. Grant was a handsome novice.

Loved this classic! Mae West's outfits gave me such jealousy and I love how she was representing thick women before it was cool! There's not much of a plot, but the costuming and the production are beautiful. I think living in a luxurious…

GREAT pre-code 1933 b/w film featuring Mae West at age 40 who really zings it up with her quick verbal wit, satire, full figure dressage, and more. Apparently this film's, um, risky double entendres and more were a big influence on…

In this completely contrived, 1933, star-vehicle (which was adapted from Mae West's Broadway play) - West (40 at the time) played Lady Lou, the quintessential "whore-with-a-heart-of-gold". (Yawn!) With hips that rivalled those of an…

Set in the 1890’s this screen adaptation of the infamous stage play "Diamond Lil" faithfully recreates a bygone New York, if only for a few brief scenes, but time has rendered its raciness quaint while West’s scandalous double entendres…

Mae West at her best. Boy some of those comments and flirtations of her's were pretty bold for those days. No wonder they had to start a code system. All in all a good movie and nothing too racy that would shock kids these days. Mild…

Mae West carries "She Done Him Wrong" with her acting and singing. I understand she even wrote the script. She didn't write the song "I like a Man Who Takes His Time", but she sure knocks it out of the park. A young Cary Grant pursues…

The sheer audacity of this brilliant pre-code film will leave you reeling. Not that the quality of the filmmaking really matters since West packs it with enough razor sharp one-liners to put a Groucho/Woody love child to shame.

I don't understand a comment like "...badly dated..." especially in regard to this film which is a peek back in the past more sure than any time machine might presume to bring us. Mae West is a character but I don't know enough about…

Somehow you can know the Mae West persona without having seen any of her movies. Along with "My Little Chickadee," in which she co-starred with W.C. Fields, this is her best known film. She adapted it from her play and it features the…
