Several traveling salesmen get involved with business, booze, romance, party girls and a lot more while staying at a Detroit hotel. A wonderful pre-Code with a really great cast. Evelyn Brent is superb as the hard-boiled Ruby Smith with Constance Cummings as the good girl gone wrong. Frank Albertson is 'Swell', and Gwen Lee, Rita La Roy, and Lucille Williams are a delight as the party girls while Dorothy Peterson is forever the self-sacrificing wife. This is well directed, well shot and lit with a keen eye and a good editor. It is a Programmer and not a B-Picture. WDR showed it ages back.
