Starring - Dorothy MacKaill, Joel McCrea, Clara Kimball Young

"A young steel worker falls in love with the boss’ daughter. They get married, but soon enough the ambitious and proud young man starts feeling like nothing more than a kept husband. Too campy to be a drama and not exactly amusing enough to be a romantic comedy, this Lloyd Bacon film is quite dull, forgettable and only rarely brightened up, mostly by a hard to miss supporting role in the cynical father of the young man."
