The last time I watched it (a long time ago) I remember picking up some little socialist ideas in the movie. This is all supposedly redeemed by the ending, which I won’t give away. But by then, it’s too late, the ideas have been presented, the damage done. Morrie Ryskind, who wrote the screenplay, later became a conservative, but during the ‘30s he was a socialist. Just be on the lookout for hidden messages. This is the type of movie screenwriting that the conservatives of the time were complaining about, although I have no idea if they mentioned this exact film.

Daffy rich families sure was a familiar theme in 1930s Depression-era comedies. One of the earlier examples, “Three-Cornered Moon” (1933), had a nutty widow and her silly children discover they are suddenly broke. But as they each find work and pull together, they mature and develop a bit of character. And the daughter’s budding-author boyfriend, who’s a bit of a pretentious intellectual, is proven lazy and wanting. Some definate conservative underpinnings to the film.
