Like Father, like son. the awesome, stately Aubrey Smith is Florian Clement, while dashing Robert Montgomery is Max; they have much in common, including their taste in rich, generous women. and the amazing Edward Horton is in here as Sir George. Max's dad wants him to fall for Lady Joan, but Max's heart wants him to fall for the widow Brown. of course, he'll have to get Sir George out of the way first. Fun, snappy. moves right along. Nora Gregor and Heather Thatcher do a fine job, acting exactly as they are supposed to in this love quadralateral. Who will end up with whom? the ending gets a little rough, but it was just the times. Directed by Jack Conway. according to wikipedia dot org and IMDB dot com, he acted in some of the earliest films ever made, and directed some of the earliest films ever made. although there are discrepencies between the two sources. This film is based on a play by Brit Ivor Novello, apparently a prolific songwriter, playwrite, director, actor. his songs have been used by "Monty Python" and "Are you Being Served" check out his profile photo on imdb; it's a still from Hitchcock's The Lodger.
