This MGM film features the talents of four of their stars, Myrna Loy, Franchot
Tone, Rosalind Russell and Walter Pidgeon. Man-Proof is a rather silly story of a girl
in love with love and a guy whom there's a lot less to than meets the eye.
Loy is the daughter of mystery writer Nana Bryant who is engaged to Walter Pidgeon. At the4 last moment Pidgeon jilts Loy and runs off and marries rich Rosalind Russell. Fortunately Loy has newspaper reporter Franchot Tone with a good shoulder to cry on as a friend.
If you can't tell where this one is going you haven't seen too many 30s movies. The stars spend a lot of time mouthing a lot of claptrap. Highlight of the film is a scene with Pidgeon in a state of inebriation. But believe me it isn't enough.
A waste of four fine talents. Well at least Tone stayed out of formal wear.
