God's Gift to Women

This rather silly comedy is one of the few screen appearances of Frank Fay who was a major star on stage and in vaudeville in the teens and twenties. He had recently married Barbara Stanwyck and was on the decline as she was rising.

Fay is an American playboy in Paris who is a legendary womanizer and the casting was impeccable. Fay however says visiting American Laura LaPlante is the real deal, but her father Charles Winninger puts hm to the test.

Joan Blondell is in the cast asone of Fay's conquests and she scores in her small role. Big things were in store for her no doubt.

Like Wallace Beery, Fay was one of those few peformers of whom no one had a good word to say. God's Gift To Women remains a curioudity to those interested in rescuing Frank Fay from obscurity.
