Mi novia está a bordo

The Spear family is very well respected and run a department store. However, the very conservative father (Berton Churchill) and his oldest son, Johnny (Reginald Denny) are worried, as the black sheep of the family, Tony (Robert Young) has just blown into town. He's nothing like his brother and father. Instead of loving business and fitting into high society, Tony is a fun-loving free spirit. And, how is this going to affect Josephine (Evelyn Venable)...the woman who is supposed to marry Johnny? After all, she thinks Tony is wonderful! But is he just too much of a free spirit?

This film was distributed by MGM but was made by Hal Roach Studios. In the mid-1930s, the studio wanted to get away from comedy shorts and begin making full-length film...such as this one and the longer Laurel & Hardy flicks.

It did seem odd to me casting the very British and proper Denny as the brother of American accented Robert Young.

As for the story, some times Robert Young and the other bohemians try a bit too hard in the film, so if you're looking for subtlety you won't see it here! Overall, an interesting idea for a film that just doesn't come together very well. Watchable but not much more.
